District Tournament Brackets Here
Who's ready for postseason softball??? Ready or not, district tournaments are beginning in every corner of the state, which means it's time to dust off those state brackets and start up the projections.
Each morning, I'll update the latest Bracketology projections based upon the previous night's results. I'll also keep an updated list of teams that have been eliminated from state contention, how many teams are still alive in their championship chase, and how many state tournament bids overall are still available. As teams begin to clinch state bids, their position on the projections will be listed in bold font.
PLEASE NOTE: Although a team that has clinched a spot will be listed in bold font, their position on the seed line could still change.
When making these projections, I'll defer first to seed number, and then MaxPreps ranking.
