To the shock of no one, 1 seed Horatio will face 7 seed Genoa in the district finals after Genoa defeated 6 seed cossatot river 14-0 in game one and 2 seed fouke in game 2. Horatio had a bye then defeated Prescott. AAA really botched this district.

What are the other finals looking like?

Most districts are seeded by the schools in the forms of the coaches/athletic directors.  What has caused a serious problem is the stupid blended conference play between 3A/4A.  Sometimes they are trying to seed schools at a tournament that haven't even played each other all year.  Sometimes a school gets punished for playing in a tough district and having a poor record, then whoops up on the other teams in the district tournament that were padding their totals against each other.

But didn't Genoa have to vacate most of its wins for an ineligible player? That is probably the source of this seeding mismatch.

Thank god the AAA has ended this asinine experiment. It pretty much saved very little travel, and caused problems like this in basketball and baseball seedings.
