Thursday's sectional results are in. Z-Ratings have been rerun. IHSAA tournament: 144 matches played, 251 to go, 255 teams alive. Next: Cloverdale v. Seven Oaks Friday in Sect 61, then 190 semis & finals Saturday. That leaves 64 sectional champs. @ihsaa1 @ihsvca @PrepDigIN

So... WHAT IF THE TOURNAMENT WERE "SEEDED"? We redrew the 2026 girls bracket so top 2 teams in every sectional can only meet in final. Regionals, the sectional w/best team plays sectional w/8th-best in their half of state, 1 v 8, 2 v 7, etc. Same teams. Hypothetical bracket. 👇

How the regional seeding works 👇 Each half of the state has 8 sectionals in every class. We ranked them 1 to 8 by their best team's Z-Rank. Then it's bracket math: 1 v 8, 2 v 7, 3 v 6, 4 v 5. The best sectional favorite gets the weakest one, like March Madness.

Example, 4A North: 1 Carroll (FW) v 8 Warsaw 2 Westfield v 7 Homestead 3 Penn v 6 Lake Central 4 Chesterton v 5 Harrison (WL) That's the top team in each sectional, seeded 1 thru 8. Upset the fav = take their spot. Semistate, 1/8 plays 4/5. 2/7 plays 3/6. Food for thought.

How does the Site Projector work?? Each half’s 16 regionals are placed to keep total travel for all 32 teams as low as possible, while attempting to schedule two different classes at each location. This is a projection; IHSAA announces actual assignments after sectional finals.
