Not living in the U.S., I didn't know much about these tournaments work, so from what I'd read on The Comic Board, I had just assumed it was that the season ends and then a few weeks later you have the "state finals" and that was just the one game, the final, shown in Episode 5-ish I think it was. So I assumed Episode 1 was the end of the season, but you're probably right. I'll have to take another look. I did wonder why the state finals dates on the calendars we looked at spanned several days rather than just one definitive date. I had assumed it was something to do with just a 6-day window in which the final could take place, but that the exact date would only be decided once they knew who was in the final.

Well, if it is just a quarter final or something in Episode 1, Mardi Gras kind of still overrules it. I don't think it's that big a deal to assume that the state finals are just a couple of weeks earlier in the MCU. But it would be evidence that basically tells us "This show should take place in a year where Mardi Gras is as late as possible," and 2017 is the latest it has been since 2014, with February 28th, so that would add to the 2017 evidence. I agree, Mardi Gras overrules it and the dates of the tournament can be adjusted since unless the championship banners hanging in the gym, in the ep. 1 I think gave any indication, the show doesn't outright state what division St. Sebastian's participates in. But, just as an example of the tournament timeline, this was the 2017 Division 1 bracket for the Louisiana High School Boys Basketball from maxpreps.com.

(Counting the recap at the start of Principia) I think the monitor appeared in full view around the 3:13 and 4:11 marks. But there were some close ups, 2 or 3, but characters like Simmons were blocking part of the monitor in the shot.
