Lol of course.Salesian has loses to Mitty, Folsom & SRV so I’d think that would keep them out of the Open. But like I wrote earlier NCS always sends 3.
thats fair... I would personally be ok with a 6 team NorCal OPEN every year. I wish the CIF would just come out and make a permanent decision rather than 8 one year, 6 the next, 5 the next and then ???Due to the big population/total schools advantage the South possesses, it would make sense to go with a NorCal Open six to preserve two strong northern units for the equity brackets. It's a case of self-interest for the North's greater good when it comes to competing vs. the South. Heck, the Southern Section, by itself, has more schools than all of the NorCal schools combined.
nailed it!Salesian would go ahead of SMS as they have a h2h win over them. The final spot in the OPEN comes down to Salesian or Vanden. The other 7 are pretty much set and CW smoked Oakridge earlier in the season so CW will be seeded above them.
I think the seedings are pretty clear based on h2h results.
1.Clet
2.Mitty
3.CW
4.OR
5.PW
6. Folsom (win over Salesian)
7.SRV (win over Salesian)
8.Salesian
6 and 7 could be flip flopped. Depends on what the committee is looking for. I"ll put Folsom 6 because they are so highly ranked by Max Preps and the committee so often takes that into consideration. But if 6 and 7 are reversed I'd have no problem with that.
