Class 3A Baseball Final Regional Projections (5/14/2024)

Class 3A Baseball Regional Projections (5/14/2024)

The regular season is over and the CHSAA Seeding and Selection Index has been finalized.  Remember for Class 3A that to make the regional bracket you must be ranked in the top 32 of the CHSAA Seeding and Selection index.  Class 3A plays a single elimination bracket for regionals.  Class 3A will play a double elimination State Tournament.  I am using the latest CHSAA Seeding and Selection Index, I pulled it at 10:00pm on 5/14.

Class 3A

  • Thirty-two (32) teams qualify for the regional/state tournament based on the CHSAA Seeding and Selection Index (RPI/MaxPreps).  League Champions not in the top 32 would receive an automatic qualify position (Minimum of 5 teams in a league for automatic berth).  The eight (8) teams with the highest CHSAA Seeding and Selection Index (RPI/MaxPreps) host regionals, the remaining twenty-four (24) teams will then be seeded by the CHSAA Seeding and Selection Index (RPI/Maxpreps) and then any first round league matchups will be adjusted.
  • The bottom 8 teams may be moved for geographical purposes.
  • State Tournament will be double elimination.  Site 1 winer will be team 1, site 2 winner will be team 2, ect…  Home team will be the higher seed throughout the tournament.  Games will be in order by game number.
