The arrival of the Baby Boomer generation also contributed to the growth of the state’s population.

In the 1940s and beyond, she said consolidation saw schools in smaller towns lose out in favor of those in larger towns, like State Center, Le Grand and, in her case, Marshalltown.

Let's take a look at who made the playoffs and the upcoming schedule. LAFC are pitted against the only team that gave them significant trouble during the season as two of their losses came at the hands of the Texas side. NYCFC come into their match against the league's best defense scoring the most goals in playoffs but the Union are undefeated at home as they'll look to overcome the New York side after falling to them in the Eastern Conference championship last season. ![]() If NYCFC and Austin are the final teams remaining, Austin will host the cup. LAFC will host if they defeat Austin FC no matter the opposition but an Austin win would open the door for the Union to host the final if they defeat NYCFC. Of the teams remaining, all of them except NYCFC have a chance to host MLS Cup which is decided by how many points a team gained during the regular season. Both LAFC and the Union were able to advance with only one victory by virtue of a first-round bye while it has taken two for Austin and NYCFC to reach this stage. The 2022 MLS Cup Playoffs have reached their final four as the current Supporters' Shield winners Los Angeles FC and MLS Cup holders New York City FC are joined in the final four by the Philadelphia Union and Austin FC. ![]()
