Crest 17 Huss 1
Brodie Lewis gets the win. Ben Hodge with a grand slam. Tucker McSwain also homered.
 
Crest 5 North Gaston 4

Crest held a 2-0 lead going into the bottom of the 6th. NG was able to tie the score. Crest came back and scored 3 to go up 5-2. North Gaston was able to load bases in the bottom of the 7th. Crest walked in 2 runs in to make it 5-4. NG still had the bases loaded with 1 out. NG hit a deep fly to right but the runner at 3rd had gone to far down the line and was unable to tag up. 2 outs now and the bases still loaded. Next hitter bounced back to the pitcher and Crest is able to hold on for the win.
 
When playoff teams are seeded, for example in 3A the ten conference champs will be drawn for seeds 1-10.

Will all 10 teams be in the same hat and have an equal chance at the #1 seed? Or, will there be a hat for undefeated champs, then one loss champs, etc etc?

Does anyone know for sure?

I believe it will be like all the other sports have been this year, a blind draw for the top seeds. Gonna make some interesting early round match-ups like we saw in basketball.
