Is this the format for all district tournaments now? When did it change from everyone plays first round (unless more than 8 teams)?

7West gives a bye to the 1 seed to the semifinals and the remining 6 play to fill the last 3 spots. Seems to fit with an odd number of 7 teams!

For as long as I was in high school, the top two finishers got automatic byes into region, and all other teams had to advance to the semifinals to advance to region to join the top two seeds. In the 2-South, the three and four seeds going into region are based on higher seed after losing in the semis. The 5-North plays a third-place game to decide their three/four seeds. Also when I was in school, your conference record decided your seed in district. After I graduated, the introduction of combined conferences came along and that was thrown out the window. The coaches have a meeting and determine who the best teams are 1-8 and seed them that way, not focusing as much on record.
That's crazy to me! Is this uniform now? 2 North was always based on conference finish AND 1 and 2 got byes since there were only 6 teams but 3 played 6 and 4 played 5. When we were 2A and had 8 in a conference 1 played 8 and 2 played 7.
My how things have changed in 10 years.

No, this is not uniform. Each conference chooses how they seed and play the tournament.
I have heard 2 south district schedule has changed, no Saturday games? Hope we get an update.
Yes they had to change it due to ACT testing, here is a link to brackets I hope they work.

Not so fast my friend!! Still have to play Concord! I was at the game where SS led the majority of game before Concord ending up winning by 6 I believe! Southside might have their number!! Saw lots of room for growth in the Bees from Bee Branch

Well I'm not a genius but I think I'm smart enough to understand simple context when reading. He was saying they could make district finals and therefore, be a higher seed and not have to play wonderview or mve.
Wasn't saying they wouldn't make regionals. Or at least not how I read it. Nice try though. Maybe move your loyalties back to Shirley.

I'm pretty sure Sack was saying "Not so fast my friends" -Lee Corso. As in don't assume bee branch will be losing to concord to just become a 3-4 seed... buttttt this ain my fight 😂
I agree with what sack said, he was stating they can make a higher seed because he thinks Southside can play with concord

I don't know why you don't like me. I vouch for Guy and Hutchcraft a lot of times when everyone else id bashing you. Remember that. As for eagle woman, go back to the camper trailer and smoke a black'n mild to calm down your eagles are worse than our Hornets. I do not think that we will beat Concord. As far as overall athletic talent, I think we are a little better than them. However, they have Keith Cornett on the sidelines. We have Greg Bradford. That is like Mike Anderson coaching against Coach K. Lopsided. They are taught how to win, what to do in every scenario while our girls just kind of go out there and do the best their parents have tought them which leads to some selfish play especially by the three seniors. But I dont blame them, they haven't been taught any better by a knowledgeable, enthusiastic coach who is not just there for the check. I'm really surprised we made regionals by looking at our team. But like I have said we will lose to Concord by about 17. I do not claim to be a basketball genius. I love the game and have studied it all of my life asking questions to knowledgeble coaches and players to understand more and more about it. I understand that I have much more to learn about the game and keep an open mind to new schemes and strategies. I hope we beat Concord I really do. It would be fun to go to Mowtown to watch our girls play in state. But I am extremely doubtful. And eagle mom, ask Banner if I am really a Southside fan or a Shirley fan. He will confirm my loyalties to South Side. They were not in the hunt for anything last year so I rooted for Shirley where I have multiple friends and family members Banner being a friend.

You can hop back on the Shirley train they might actually win a game in regionals and make state, but that's about it

concord played HORRIBLE, can't make excuses that game
So what seed will concord be in regionals
they will be 3 seed so will play number 2 seed out of other district
Sandbagging by chance? The way this season went I'd have thought concord would roll thru district. And yes I think Cornett would do this if he thought it would benefit tthem.

I don't see how this benefits concord at all not being a 1 seed and playing the 4th best team in Wonderview. But if he feels playing Guy/MVE is his best opportunity then by all means go for it. But you can't tell me somethings not up beating them like red head step child's both times this season then losing by 6? Fishy fishy.
Maybe he's banking on MVE losing....and it seems Concord owns MVE in region games...
Shirley 60 Midland 48, Shirley was up by 25 but let them make a big run
They didn't make a run Shirley missed way too many free throws. Shirleys deliberate offense beat them in the first half and they could never get their shooter going. He was being guarded. Boring game for some fans but the win is a win. Moving on.
I for one did not have Timbo winning or Shirley winning tonight. I'm sure there isn't much that did either.
Cornett tried the stall with a 1 point lead and lost. Timbo was forced to foul to get them to 1-1 and Concord missed front end and Timbo never looked back. Loved seeing him lose by being a puss.

Rural Special in overtime, one of the best games I have ever seen, well executed plays down the stretch by both teams, you combine that and Timbo/Concord and it was the best night of sports I have witnessed in a while

Would have been even better if one ref had been in sync with his two buddies. They were letting them play and he kept calling BS tic tac fouls. Westside had 3 girls foul out and finished the last minute of overtime with 4 players.

My opinion. One of the absolute worst things about no shot clock. Cornett loves to be mouthy too. I've seen him make a mocking comment about an opposing player before during a game. If any opposing coach had ever directed something like that to my kid, he and I would have a personal conversation for sure.

Sorry. Play the game, up and down. Don't like the tactic and I'll label any coach that does it as such.
Concord will be OK come Regionals. 24 simply couldn't hit anything that night and Timbo gave them every chance to win that game.

Ok that tells me all I need to know about your depth of knowledge and understanding the various intricacies of game strategy! Actually it speaks volumes!!
That's not strategy. That's playing scared and it cost him.
I think this strategy works when you have a shot clock, I have seen it fail time and again in HS basketball, eventually a bad pass is made, or tipped, or 3 second violation, or something happens that causes a turn over. I see coaches start stalling with 2 and 3 minutes left on the clock. When you're hot, keep it going!

I'll be the first to admit I was NOT a fan of Cornett at all. After seeing him wear that shirt he has my respect. Class act
Any scores from Midland?
Why yes Rico, our girls just repeated in the district tournament and are taking the top seed into regionals next week after edging out Rural 60-58. Guess that Cornett guy isn't so bad after all.
