ADVISORY TO NCHSAA MEMBER SCHOOLS: BASKETBALL PLAYOFFS

Feb 24, 2015

Due to inclement weather across the state, any NCHSAA basketball playoff game which cannot be played tonight (Tuesday, February 24) should be postponed and rescheduled for Wednesday night (February 25).

The NCHSAA staff will continue to monitor the situation and provide additional information about Wednesday night games by mid-morning on Wednesday. Scheduling should be done on a day-by-day basis only.

Schools should note that games may start no earlier than 5 p.m. on Wednesday, provided the schools mutually agree to that earlier time due to the weather

NCHSAA playoff seeding is crap every year for split conferences, but it won't be changing.

4.1.8 Playoff Declaration: A school has the option to "opt out" of the playoffs, provided it fills

out the Playoff Declaration Form on the website, and submits it and it is in the NCHSAA

offices prior to the reporting deadline for that specific sport. Proper submission means

the school will not be considered for either an automatic berth or a wild card position. If

the form is not submitted, then the school will be considered and may qualify for a playoff

berth.

(a) The above does not apply to the sports of cross country, golf, swimming, and

track and field.

4.1.9 Submission of Incorrect Record: Reference 3.2.3.d, 3.2.3.e, and 3.2.3.f.

4.1.10 Playoff Berths/Qualification for the Sports of Baseball, Basketball, Soccer, Softball

and Volleyball:

(a) A team must finish 1st, 2nd or 3rd in the conference to qualify. In a split

conference a team must finish 1st or 2nd in their division, OR

(b) If not enough teams qualify using the criteria in 4.1.10.a above, we would take

the teams with the highest 22-game winning percentage, followed by conference

winning percentage (split conferences use all conference games), OR

(c) If too many teams qualify using the criteria in 4.1.10.a above, we would take the

teams with the best overall conference finish followed by the highest conference

winning percentage to determine the qualifiers.

(d) All classifications will field a full complement of 64 teams.

(e) If ties exist at any level the tie(s) will be broken first by head-to-head

competition, and then by a draw.

(f) Once the 64 teams are determined, they will be divided into groups of 32, Eastern

and Western. This is not done by conferences but on actual geography (location

of each school).

4.1.11 Seeding for the Sports of Baseball, Basketball, Soccer, Softball and Volleyball:

(a) Seed all #1s by 22-game winning percentage.

(b) If school finishes first in its part of a classification in a split conference, it is

seeded as a number one and not actually where it finished overall in the

conference.

(c) A team in a split conference that finishes second or third in the overall conference

standings will be seeded second or third. (Revised: May 2014)

(d) Seed all #2s by 22-game winning percentage. (Revised: May 2014)

(e) Seed all #3s by 22-game winning percentage. (Revised: May 2014)

(f) Seed all other qualifying teams based only on their 22-game winning percentage,

regardless of conference finish.

(g) General Information for all Classifications:

(1) If teams in any 'tier' of the seeding process have identical winning

percentage, head-to-head competition will be used. If they have played

one another, the winner receives the higher seed. If they haven't played

one another, a draw is made for the higher seed.

(2) The non-conference game(s) that are dropped for seeding purposes

may still be used in breaking a tie as described above, i.e. two teams in

the same half of a bracket are equal seeds from their individual

conferences (both #2s) and have identical records (18-4). We will first

try to break the tie(s) by looking at head-to-head competition. If these

schools played each other in a non-conference game, but one of them

didn't count that game for seeding purposes, the game will still be used

to break the tie, with the team that lost getting the lower seed.

(3) Since teams that finish 1st, 2nd or 3rd are seeded in separate 'tiers' the

overall record of a number two or even a number three team may be

better than the record of a number one team. But under no

circumstances will a team that finished as a #2 or #3 be seeded higher

than any #1, nor will a #3 team ever be seeded higher than a #2.

(4) However, since all teams that finish lower than #3 are seeded in the

same 'tier' regardless of conference finish, it will be possible for a team

that finishes as a #5 to be seeded higher than a #4, or a #6 to be seeded

higher than a #5, since the only consideration in that 'tier' is overall

record.

General Requirements

(5) Once seeding is complete, 1 plays 32, 2 plays 31, etc. The higher seed

is the home team unless otherwise determined by the NCHSAA

Since West was the highest finishing 2A team in the conference they are considered a conference champion for seeding purposes so they automatically get one of the seeds for a conference champion in the 2A. Alleghany was the 2 seed in the MVAC in 1A so they get a lower seed that way.

Something seems very strange about these seeds. West Wilkes is 12-10 and gets a 9 seed in the 2a bracket and Alleghany goes 19-3 and 8-0 against the 2a teams in the conference and they get a 10 seed in the 1a. Has the NCHSAA lost the plot or am I the only one confused by this.
