- All 4A regions now have 4 automatic berths.
- Regions 1-4 are still upper state, 5-7 are lower.
- There are now 4 at-large berths on the lower state side of the bracket. There's no mention if upper state teams will be considered for those berths, but it would make sense since there are 22 teams in regions 1-4 and only 18 in 5-7.
- They are no longer determining home/away by bracket, they have assigned a seed to each region's qualifiers. I would love to know how they determined those seeds.
