More than a dozen Palm Beach County high school basketball teams secured automatic regional bids by winning district titles. Here's who's moving on.
More than a dozen high school basketball teams from Palm Beach County locked up automatic regional bids this week in district tournament action.
District tournaments were the first step in the drive to reach the Florida High School Athletic Association's basketball state championships, which will be hosted in Jacksonville in late February and early March.
Tournament champions received one of four automatic bids in a regional, leaving four at-large bids available to the non-district champions who are ranked highest in the FHSAA's poll. Those bids will be announced in the FHSAA's upcoming "Selection Show."
Here's a look at the local teams who secured automatic bids with district championships last week:

- Jupiter (District 7-7A)
- Dwyer (District 13-6A)
- Atlantic (District 14-5A)
