Fresh off upsets in their respective district tournaments, four area schools will look to keep things rolling today in the sectional round of the state basketball tournament.

Those four teams - the Blair Oaks boys, California boys and California girls in Class 3 and the Tipton boys in Class 2 - were all No. 2 seeds in last weeks districts, and all beat the No. 1 seed to move on.

Two of those teams - the Blair Oaks and California boys - will meet at 7:45 p.m. today at Missouri S&T in Rolla.
