Posted: Updated:

BATON ROUGE (KSLA-TV) - The Louisiana High School Athletics Association announcing that the principals of LHSAA schools have passed Proposition 18.  This means that the 388 schools in Louisiana will have two separate divisions during football playoffs.

The format change is set to take effect during the 2013 football season.
