Seed #1 paired against lowest eligible team in Region standing from another Region except where #1 receives bye Seed #2 paired against next eligible team in Region standing from another Region except where #2 receives bye Continue in a similar manner until brackets are complete. To determine the lowest ranking team from another Region when there are 3 or more regions in play utilize the District 10 Ranking Index. Example: Region 1, 2, and 3 are all basketball teams. The Region 1 champion is the number one seed. The last qualifying teams in region 2 and 3 are compared using the District 10 Ranking Index. The lowest in the ranking of those two teams is paired against the number 1 seed. 5. In no case will a team who finishes below another team of the same classification in the same region be bracketed above that team. 6. The bracket position for teams that opt out will be left blank. 7. In the event a qualifying school opts out of the playoffs the remaining team in the pairing will have a bye. 8. Failure to complete and submit the District 10 Ranking Index on line Form by the deadlines indicated may result in team being placed in a lower seeding position or be totally eliminated from the tournament. Schools that play out of state teams must call that school to get enrollment for grades 10, 11 and 12 and CONVERT to a PI Classification. *Utilize as a tool the District 10 Ranking Index Sites: 1.
