Regional 'Rankings'

[GrifFan]

Yeah but Western lost to CentralMO. That should disqualify them. ;)

Fair

Is it true that the Central Region tourney will be in Aberdeen?.. The Midco announcers acted as if that was already decided during the Parker Fox Show today.

Yes, all regions are at predetermined locations.

Thanks. I am behind and had not heard it. Guess that's the only way to get it out of Maryville.

Uh....

No more "under consideration". Actual rankings released today.

[GrifFan]

Am I missing something? Why is WSC ranked ahead of Moorhead?

Doesn't really matter, they would play each other with that finish anyway.

I mean I'd get it if it was Mankato....

Doubtful, if there are 3 teams from each conference and NSU and NW get the byes then I'm guessing they would flip one of the seeds to get NSIC v. MIAA in both first round games. On the other hand, I guess they could go MIAA v. MIAA in 1st round and winner takes on NSU and vice versa on the other side with an NSIC team to go against NW in second round. Who knows!

They never used to do that - you were seeded without regard to conference even if it meant playing the same team for a third our fourth time. But maybe that's changed, or maybe the approach will be a little more flexible this year with no out of conference games to judge.

Yeah, I'm looking at it from no out of conference games perspective so to just play another conference game in the first round doesn't make a lot of sense. Also, there was a greater chance of variety with 3 conferences involved but with only 2 conferences that ability for a different opponent is lessened.
