Districts/Regionals/State:

1. Identical format for Boys & Girls

2. Districts must unanimously agree prior to the season on their own seeding criteria.  If agreement cannot be met, District seeding will be done by the CHSAA Seeding & Selection Index (50% Maxpreps & 50% RPI). Maxpreps and RPI will run through Districts.

3. District winners (8) advancing to the 32-team state bracket. District champions are guaranteed a top 8 (host slot) as long as they are in the top 16 of the CHSAA Seeding & Selection Index after Districts.

4. Remaining 24 teams are filled in by the CHSAA Seeding & Selection index published after Districts.  Any team moved up to the 1-8 slots if a district winner is not in the top 16, will be true seeded 1-8.

5. Seeding criteria for the 32-team state bracket-CHSAA Seeding & Selection Index published after Districts.  Seeds 9-16 are true seeded except to try and avoid league matchups in the FIRST ROUND ONLY.  Teams may be moved one spot up or down.  Teams 17-32 may be moved up to two spots based upon geography and league/district matchups.

6. First two rounds of the state tournament (Regionals) will be hosted by the top seed in the quadrant of the bracket, over two days. (4-teams total).

7. Teams will be reseeded prior to the final week-State Championships (Final 8).  The CHSAA Seeding Index published after District will be the only factor used for Seeding.

8. Top 8 teams will advance. Class 2A Great 8 will play a Consolation Bracket.
