Playoff Picture Girls Basketball Class 2A
The information to get this together was pulled from the RPI and latest league standings. I every hope to do this every Tuesday or Wednesday. I am using the league standing that I updated on Monday and the RPI I am using is straight from CHSAA as of Friday 1/31/2017
Class 2A
Class 2A Reginal and State information goes as follows: Districts Determine own seeding criteria for district tournaments, Eight Districts each qualify three teams to two regions, Regionals will feature girl’s game on Thursday and the boys on Friday and conclude the regional championships/State qualifier games on Saturday.
East Regional (Districts 2, 4, 5, 7, 8 with 38 teams) will qualify five teams to state.
West Regional (Districts 1, 3, 5 with 23 teams) will qualify three teams to state.
Regionals will be seeded according to RPI, with district opponents avoided in the regional bracketing when possible. Seeds 11-15 can be adjusted to accommodate geography. Districts will jointly be responsible for the regional site, East Regional securing 2 neutral, central sites; the West Regional districts will secure one neutral, central site. The 8 state teams will be seeded by RPI, avoiding regional and, if possible, districts match-ups.

Quick Note:
Two teams from District 2 are getting bye’s and the other three bye’s will go to District 6, 7, 8. Remember that the three teams that qualify for the Regional tournament must finish in the top 3 of the district tournament. In the West Region District 5 grabs 2 bye’s and Del Norte from District 1 grabs the other bye. The weakest district in 2A is District 3 and they don’t get a single high seed they will close out the region with the three lowest seeds. If they don’t care about districts playing each other then it would be West Grand and Soroco in Pod H but since they do West Grand will have to play Del Norte and one team that is very good will have to go home. The 8 teams that I think will make state will be; Yuma, Wray, Simla, Swink, Limon, Paonia, Del Norte, Soroco.
