gotta flip/flop Murphy & ES .....ES goes as a 2....Murphy is WC

 

[Smctrain]

A lot of changes left to do but they are a start

 

[bareman]

Murphy drew the 3...didn’t mean WC

 

[Thunder_struck8712]

They'll be seeded as a wildcard. Only get a auto 3 seed if there are more than I think 8 teams in conference.

 

[Thunder_struck8712]

Bessemer City should drop too I believe.

 

[Gonzo9419]

I wanna see final max prep rankings

 

[Thunder_struck8712]

It's posted on the site with brackets.

How is Rosman in and Hayesville out?

 

[bareman]

Update : brackets have been taken down

 

[Gonzo9419]

How is bishop out I honestly believe they aren’t using updates rankings they are just going with yesterday’s rankings because how can update one state without doing every other state in America because these teams should move nationally I’m telling you guys this is horse crap

From the NCHSAA website:

The NCHSAA has discovered it did not use the most up-to-date information to post for seeding purposes. Therefore, the brackets have been taken down and the staff is reseeding.

Albermarle!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Kevin2346]

Yeah they used last weeks rankings....nobody moved

 

[Kevin2346]

Either that or Gentry called and said there is no way we are going big 1aa and they said ok we will work something out. Lmao just kiddin

 

[DaBluePrint1]

1AA West is Murders Row. Whoever comes out of it will be well prepared for anything the East brings to the table. Not saying the West will win, but it's definitely possible.

 

[bareman]

by just looking at it I think North Stanly becomes the 2 seed with EW at 3....Murphy goes to 7 and ES drops to 6...

 

[mbdfan_rivals121259]

Murphy drew the 3...didn’t mean WC

Check out Carolinapreps, Murphy coaches saying the NCHSAA did not use draw results because all 3 were not in the same bracket. Swain seeded as a #1 conference seed due to head to head, Murphy seeded as #2 conference seed. Cherokee seeded as #1 conference seed in small 1A.

News at 11 stay tuned to your local broadcast stations

 

[Thunder_struck8712]

I don't think it matters of they are in different brackets. Cherokee should be seeded with 1s in 1A, Swain with 2's in AA, and Murphy with wildcards in the AA. That's my interpretation of things.

 

[bareman]

was informed it does; Swain going to get a bye with Murphy looking at 5/6 seed depending on MP ranking

 

[A Jacketfan]

Then Bessemer City should be seeded as a #1 too since TJ is small 1a and BC is 1aa

 

[A Jacketfan]

Also, Maxpreps doesn't update their rankings until Sunday's correct? So what formula are they using right now?

 

[Cdoc73]

Either that or Gentry called and said there is no way we are going big 1aa and they said ok we will work something out. Lmao just kiddin

Oh your a ediot

 

[Simmons Ratings]

I was told that the way it will work is that Cherokee will get a 1 as the only 1A school and then Swain will get a 1 and Murphy a 2 for Swain winning head-to-head against Murphy.

I believe TJ and BC will both be 1's because they are in different brackets.

 

[EWCards]

How does the seeding work for split conferences like the mtn valley. EW should be the conference "champ" on the 1a side or does that even matter?

 

[DaBluePrint1]

I can see East Surry" leap frog" a team or two especially if SOS is involved.

 

[EWCards]

Brackets are back up it looks like.

 

[bareman]

looks about the same....

 

[Gonzo9419]

Total bs for my villains still out and rosman in with 2 wins where bishop has 4

 

[JKVikes]

Rosewood moved up to 1AA so Murphy is not the smallest in 1AA.

 

[dmcamp]

looks about the same....

Well coaches have time to complain...maybe they will change it...

 

[SlickRich28120]

Great second round matchups across the board, Possible North Stanley -- Murphy matchup is intriguing. How about a possible cards vs cards matchup for a second time. Bessemer City vs Swain County. Whats everybody's thoughts on some of these matchups.

 

[DaBluePrint1]

As far as leap frog not speaking of anyone in particular i know they had a tough schedule with Ragsdale 4a, N.Surry 10-1(conf champ WPC), EW 9-2, West Stokes, Mt. Airy 11-0...not sure how Max preps will seed teams..but if strength of schedule matters any, i see East Surrys 7-4 record looked at with a grain of salt.

 

[FarWestNorthCarolinaSports]

This is jacked up.

 

[FarWestNorthCarolinaSports]

Seems BC should be in over Rosman.

 

[BravesGWY]

Wonder how Union academy isn’t seeded higher than Elkin

 

[Kevin2346]

I wondered the same thing...i guess committee values elkins win over east wilkes more than union academy over tja. Still weird
