GREEN BAY (WLUK) -- The Division 1 softball brackets for the postseason were released and there is a little surprise.
Despite being undefeated and the top-ranked team in the state, Kaukauna (18-0) is seeded No. 2, behind fellow undefeated Green Bay Preble (23-0). Ashwaubenon (20-4) is the No. 3 seed and De Pere (16-8) is No. 4.
If they all reach the sectionals, Preble plays De Pere and Kaukauna plays Ashwaubenon with the winners meeting in a sectional final.
Division 1 bracket
Kaukauna, which had its 108-game winning streak ended in a state semifinal last season, had been the No. 1 seed the last four seasons in this bracket.
The Division 1 postseason starts Tuesday and the state tournament is June 11-14 at Goodman Diamond in Madison.
