Can someone please explain how a team listed 4-6 can actually be a 2 seed, obviously I'm missing something.
E. Wayne a 2 seed ?????
- Thread starter Hoopsthread
- Start date
All conference champions seeded before at large teams. Eastern Wayne seeded as conference champ since they are the top team from their classification in a split conference. Only 2 conference champs in 3A East are West Craven and Eastern Wayne. They are therefore seeded 1 & 2.
The only reason they got it was Aycock had to forfeit four games, so that made them first in their classification of a split conference, It moved them from a no 8 seed to a no 2 seed, their MaxPreps ranking is 72nd of 100 teams
Aycock was 6-4 before forfeits, right? That still shouldn't be a conference champion.
Aycock finished with 5 losses (not counting forfeits) 4 of them to 4A schools. If you have a problem with them, I'm curious to know what you think about schools with 4/5/6 losses being #1 seeds.
Another way to look at it is if they didn't have to run the gauntlet of 4-A teams they would have a better record. The forfeits did move them up but the very same thing happens in 1-A, if they didn't have to play the 1-AA and 2-A/2-AA teams their records would be better/
