@JMBpreps Brackets out on Thursday, then get travel planned in less than 24 hours for the 1st round is a pretty tight timeline. And that's if there aren't any snafu's on the bracket release or the server doesn't crash.

WHY GETTING A FIRST-ROUND BYE MATTERS THIS YEAR IN NCHSAA BASKETBALL This year's NCHSAA basketball playoffs are dealing with two changes that are squeezing together the first four rounds. Last year, the first two rounds were played in the opening week -- Tuesday & Friday -- then that repeated the next week, with the final week being the "final four" format in Winston-Salem. There's no way to do a final four format with 8 classes this year. So regionals have to happen at the end of the second week. Which squeezes the first four rounds into the first 8 days of playoffs -- Feb. 24, Feb. 26, Feb. 28, March 2. If you can avoid that Feb. 24 game, you'll still have to win three games in five days. But that's better than winning four games in six days. Anybody seeded lower than 9th that makes it to regionals will have earned it. The only fix I can think of, if enough people think this is a problem? End the regular season on a Wednesday. (most conference tournaments eliminate a round and play top-4 on Monday, championships on Wednesday). The brackets come out Thursday, first round on Friday. Then you could hit the second week with a traditional three-game week (which has happened often in the past whether it was Tuesday-Thursday-Friday or Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday). Then teams who make regionals get two days of prep at minimum. Thoughts?

The Lady Mountaineers fall to the Sugar Bears this evening, 53-46 in the Mtn 8 Conf Tourney. Julia Wells was the A1 Storage POTG. The NCHSAA playoff brackets are due out this Saturday afternoon so stay tuned for more info this weekend.
