The 1A lower state may at first appear to be a joke, however, it may also make sense if you understand the reasoning. Here's a little of how it went. GSSM and Bamberg were both considered the 3rd seed, however, that obviously can't happen. With both the GSSM and Bamberg coaches present, GSSM was given the ever so slight edge by perceived strength of schedule (fully debatable - and causing much anquish). This placed Bamberg 4th, which would have them play Blackville - again. Since the real issue was who was third, it was proposed to have GSSM play Bamberg resolving that question. So Bamberg was moved to 6th. Is it pure? No. Does it make sense? At a lot of levels yes, maybe not yours.
