Playoff Projections Boys Basketball Class 1A

We are nearly done with January and predictions are starting show a little more reality with District Tournament right around the corner. Teams qualify for Regionals by finishing in the Top 3 or in the Top 2 and I am using my League Predictions to pick my teams for this Playoff Projections. I then seed the Regionals using RPI. This is my third Playoff Projection this year and hoping these are helpful for teams and fans.

Class 1A

A regional tournament will be played in Class 1A.
