Durham, N.C. — At its league meetings in Sioux Falls, S.D., this week, the American Association announced that it would move from a three-division format to a two-division setup for the 2018 season.
“Moving to a two-division format enables the league to create a more equal schedule, with teams playing divisional rivals the same number of times. We expect greater competition and balance from the new setup,” league commissioner Miles Wolff commented.
The top two teams from each division will meet in the best-of-5 semifinals, with the winners meeting in the best-of-5 championship series.
