Looks like Region 3 4A doesn't have their report in yet???

Cantona?????

I heard since Darlington forfeit there playoff game to airport that now airport loses its home field advantage. WHy is it fair for them to lose home field advantage just because a team didnt wont to travel and get beat?

ahssoccer,
I agree that what you heard does not make sense. If Darlington forfeits the first round, the way I read the bracket, Airport should play host on Wednesday to the winner of the Socastee/Stall match. The bracket says "Higher Region Finish will always host Lower Region Finish." Airport finished 1st in their region while Socastee and Stall finished 2nd and 3rd respectively.

i think its if they win that and have to play hilton head they would not be abel to host hilton head if it came down to them cause of the forfeit sry i forgot about second round but since airports record is better then hilton heads they should host that game if it should happen but they wont because of the forfeit is what ive been told. Sry for not being clear.

If Airport and Hilton Head meet in the third round, it will be at Hilton Head. However, it has ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with the forfeit. Both HH and ARPT are champions of their respective regions (read #1 seeds), and when two like seeds meet the home field advantage is determined by a rotation in the brackets from year to year. Now, if someone other than HH advances to the third round, Airport will host that team because of their higher respective region finish. In other words, home-field designation between "like-seeded" teams is predetermined and has nothing to do with who has the better record or whether there was a forfeit or not.

o ok well thanks for the clarification
