8th Grade Coaches for the 2020 season should click on the link below to enter their coach contact information to assist Division Directors with issuing invitations to the tournament during the season.

The Archdiocese approved the following calendar, which you can reference for future years as well. Labor Day is Sept. 7th this year, which means:

Final results are posted in the 2019 RESULTS tab on the left!

This tournament is a special thing near & dear to the hearts of those who volunteer to run it. You heard us mention many times that this tournament supports Catholic Education in the Milwaukee Archdiocese. When the numbers are finalized this year we will be close to donating $100,000 over the past 14 years to allow children the opportunity to attend Catholic schools. In addition, over $30,000 has been donated to support the Retired Religious in the Milwaukee area. Thank you for supporting our efforts to accomplish this!

The Final Four field this year includes the top 12 out of 76 teams, and it took more than 100 matches to set up championship Sunday. 23 matches went 4 or 5 games, 63 games were decided by 3 points or less, and 16 games went into extra points. All 4 teams competing should take pride in their accomplishments and being the ones that are able to play on the last official day of the Archdiocesan season. This year by the end of today 721 athletes will have completed 108 matches in 7 days to crown 3 champions.

To make this tournament run, many people have a hand in making The Seton what it is. As Tournament Director I would like to publicly thank:

Glen Barkow of TosaSportsPics—link on our website

Everyone in the neon yellow shirts, the line judges, admissions workers, division directors, are tournament committee members are all volunteers. All-tolled this year 150 people volunteered over 1300 hours to make this tournament run. Most of the key tournament committee members spent over 40 hours present on-site during the tournament this week. Please help me in thanking all of them for their hard work and dedication to you and the causes the Seton supports!

I would like to thank All of our sponsors, advertisers, and donors, whose financial support allow things like the T-shirts for the players, the awards for our Final Four teams, and running the website as we do.

Finally thank you the fans, players, and coaches for your dedication to the sport we all love. We wouldn’t be able to do this unless you were here to support your sons & daughters as they compete. Thank you all!
