District 9A

[Guest 3rdParty]

Fayetteville is the team to beat. So Athletic, Nich Hopkins and james keith are 2 of the top 3 players in the district behind spears. When it comes time to dance in the tournament I would put my money on this still young tiger team

[Observation]

Fayetteville is for sure very talented and could possibly win some games in post season especially next year but I would have to disagree they are not the team to beat based on what I saw Friday night. There are 4 teams at top that can win it and Fayetteville is one of them for sure.

Looks like FC still struggles on the road. Community is team to beat.

[Observation]

Big game tonight with Fayetteville at MTCS. This game should be very competitive and go along way towards the outcome of the regular season standings.

Forrest at Community tonight is a big game for both. Forrest is playing much better and has some good talent and play hard all the time. For sure a team you don't wanna play in the tournament. 

[Observation]

Last week of season and all seeding for tournament is still undecided. Should be a fun week of basketball.

MTCS 63 - Moore County 35

Fayetteville 57 - Forrest 43

Community 38 - Cascade 75 (non-district)

 

With the win, MTCS clinches first in district and #1 seed in tournament.

[ecu]

How did they clinch? If Community beats MTCS , they will be tied. And they will have split. What is the tie-breaker?

Coin toss

[Observation]

MTCS didn't clinch last night. Game Friday night is for district championship at Community.

District By-Laws read something to this effect:

 

Tie-Break Rules

1. Head to head record

2. Record vs. highest seeded opponent

3. Record vs. next highest seeded opponent

4. Coin toss

 

Friday's Community vs MTCS Game

 

Scenario #1: If MTCS wins - they win district with best record

 

Scenario #2:If Community Wins - here the tie-break process:

1. Head to head record - Split 1-1

2. Next highest seeded opponent - Fayetteville - MTCS 2-0 Comm 1-1

MTCS wins district on 2nd tie-break

 

So according to how the by-laws read, I believe MTCS has locked up 1st place regardless of Friday's game vs Community. Coin Flip is not the 2nd tie-break process.
