She was added but has told us she is not going. Team is a ways from being ready anyway. Have not looked good in scrimmages.

Wow, the girls 2011 4A playoffs pairings are crazy!

Let's say TL Hanna or Wren win the Region I-AAAA championship. As the Region 1 - #1 Seed, they would play the Region 2 - #4 Seed - either Dorman, Mauldin, Riverside, or JL Mann in the FIRST ROUND!

Whereas the Region 4 - #4 Seed - let's say Ridge View or Blythewood, gets a trip to Region 6 - #1 Seed - most likely West Florence, and the winner most likely gets to face the winner of a Region 8 - #2 seed - say Ft. Dorchester vs Region 5 - #3 Seed - say Aiken.

Basically 1 of the top 5 teams in the state will be out in the 1st round, and a team with a losing, or .500 record, will most likely make the 4A Lower State Semi-finals.

Dorman, Mauldin, Riverside, JL Mann, TL Hanna, or Wren is a few months away from having a completely unfair first round playoff exit; while an unranked, average team will coast into the Lower State semifinals.

Way to go Realignment, way to go...

Only system where finishing 3rd instead of second helps

Note: For some unknown reason, the Europsport Scoreboard has JL Mann listed in region 1-AAAA. http://www.eurosportscoreboard.com/page_conference.php?id=407

Of these, only Mauldin (2) and Riverside (3) are in the top 5 in the preseason rankings. I would expect both to win their first round games barring massive injuries or sickness. But with Dorman at #7 and JL Mann at #9, Region 2-AAAA has four pre-season top 10 teams and looks like the state's strongest region. That should really make it tough for the top two seeds from Region 1-AAAA. TL Hanna (10)is the only team from Region 1 in the preseason top 15 rankings.

Anyone know why the Eurosport Scoreboard has JL Mann listed in Region 1-AAAA? http://www.eurosportscoreboard.com/page_conference.php?id=407

Not in Region 4-AAAA where the 3 seed will probably face Wando in the first round.
