Playoff Picture Girls Basketball Class 2A

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:

The East Regional has spread out more team’s getting bye’s as only 2 bye’s are going to District 2. The West Region is dominated by the 2 bye’s from District 5. Norwood has improved greatly in the RPI side and are the #4 seed instead of all three District 3 teams getting the 7, 8, 9. As of right now the 8 teams going to state are: Yuma, Wray, Swink, Simla, Lyons, Paonia, Del Norte, Soroco. Those are the top 8 teams I feel in the state right now as well. Pod E will be very interesting to see Lyons face off against Haxtun and should be the best game in the Regional bracket.
