Stall's win over Ashley Ridge resulted in a 3-way-tie for 3rd place in region 8. We think West Ashley wins the tie-breaker based on "Region Point Differential between the tied teams"

Each region sets their own tie-breaking rules. We would appreciate it if one of you guys down there could confirm.

I have a copy of the 2018 Tiebreakers for 5A Region 8.

If someone can confirm that those tiebreakers did not change for 2019.

Upper state at large will be Blythewood.

Lower state may be White Knoll but haven’t heard it confirmed.

[olguy73]

Lower state will be Chapin. It can not be White Knoll as they lost the head to head with Chapin therefore White Knoll finished last in their region. Doesn’t matter either team will get their doors blown off again by Dutch Fork.

You’re right. I hate that Aveon Smith for WK got hurt though. He made their whole team look so much better.

[Fortfor5]

Looks like df in round two

[Damefan]

Irmo vs Lauren’s in the Upperstate game. Also fort05 you get DF at home in week 3 of the playoffs. Potential rematch against Berkeley in week 2.

A few thoughts:

1) Woodmont to Sumter is a very long bus ride.
2) I’ll be looking at the Boiling Springs-Clover game closely. Clover’s schedule has been much weaker than BS. I think this one might be interesting. Same goes for Blythewood-Laurens.
3) I think the best teams in the Upper State are in Region 2. I just don’t believe in Clover or Sumter right now. Blue Eagles and Gamecocks, prove me wrong!
4) It sucks that once again Dorman, who went unbeaten, might have to travel to Clover in the third round. Just as we had to travel to TL Hanna in the third round last year.
5) Even so, Dorman seems to have a pretty clear path to the upper state finals in my opinion, where they are likely to host Byrnes or perhaps Gaffney
6) Just how good is Dutch Fork? Are they really that head and shoulders above the rest of the state? Are they a shoo-in for Columbia or can someone in the Lower State, perhaps Fort Dorchester play with them and perhaps knock them off? And can Dorman/ Byrnes/Gaffney upend the Silver Foxes or is the Upper State basically playing for runner up?

I think whoever comes out of the upper state will give Dutch Fork a good game. Not saying that Dutch Fork won't still win, but I don't see it being as one-sided as it was last season.
