Playoff Picture Boys Basketball Class 1A
The information to get this together was pulled from the RPI and the updated District Tournaments. The RPI I am using is straight from CHSAA as of Wednesday 2/22/2017. I am going to predict each League Tournament then the Regional tournament off of that and finally the final 8 teams for the state tournament.
Class 1A
Eight Districts, each qualifying two or three (as noted) to three regionals
The #1 and #2 seeds from Districts 1 and 6 will be paired for 2016-2017 (in 2017-2018 it will be Districts 1 and 8) will be paired, while the #1, #2, #3 seeds from Districts 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 in 2017-2018) advance to a regional site. Regions 2s (4, 5, 8 2016-2017) and 3s (2, 3, 7), the nine qualify teams will be seeded by RPI, avoiding any previous district match-ups. In Region 1, District 1 and 6 #1s will play the other districts #2s. Regions 1 receives 2 state qualifiers, Regions 2 and 3 receive three state qualifiers each.
| School Year | Region 1 | Region 2 | Region 3 |
| 2016-2017 | 1, 6 | 4, 5, 8 | 2, 3, 7 |
| 2017-2018 | 1, 8 | 4, 5, 7 | 2, 3, 6 |
| 2018-2019 | 1, 7 | 4, 5, 8 | 2, 3, 6 |
Each Region shall jointly determine it regional playoff site. Eight regional winners advance to the state tournament where they will be seeded by RPI, avoiding any previous regional or district match-ups, if possible
Quick Note: District tournaments are under way and in District 8 some upsets have changed the seen in the 1A regional scene. I am going with Region 2 and 3 to be seeded by RPI and not by the district
