MONROE - The Monroe High School softball team received a No. 4 seed and will open up the WIAA Division 2 regional tournament at home Tuesday.
The WIAA released regional seeds and first-round matchups Thursday.
Monroe will play Whitewater in a regional quarterfinal game at 5 p.m. Tuesday at Twining Park.
"We figured we would be a No. 3, 4 or 5 seed," Monroe coach Dale Buvid said. "The best I thought we would do was a 3 and the worst I thought we would be a 5."
Evansville was given a No. 5 seed and appealed the decision, but Monroe remained the No. 4 seed after a vote.
"Evansville beat Fort Atkinson, but we play a tough schedule, and Evansville lost to Juda-Albany," Buvid said. "Evansville is a good team. We will have our hands full. They will come with a chip on their shoulder because they felt like they should have been the No. 4 seed. We have Whitewater to worry about first."
If both Monroe and Evansville win their quarterfinals Tuesday, they would square-off Wednesday at Twining Park.
The other area regional quarterfinal games scheduled for Tuesday include:
Division 3
No. 11 Brodhead at No. 6 Parkview
No. 10 New Glarus at No. 7 Waterloo
Division 4
No. 1 Juda-Albany received bye
No. 9 Fennimore at No. 8 Black Hawk
No. 12 Darlington at No. 5 Riverdale
No. 13 Pecatonica at No. 4 Highland
No. 14 Monticello at No. 3 Southwestern
No. 10 Argyle at No. 7 Potosi
