Every team has to play their way in to the regional tournament except for the district champions. If you lose in the 1st round of the district then you have to play two games (at least one of those on the road) to make it to the actual regional tournament quarterfinal round.

I love the super region, I just wish they would select district runner-up matchups (round 1) by RPI instead of basically drawing them from a hat. Pburg vs Paintsville should be a quarterfinal game, not a 1st round game. Magoffin vs Phelps in the 1st round should not happen. If it went by RPI then you would get better teams in the quarterfinal round creating a better regional tournament. Pburg and Paintsville both deserve to play a game at Pike Central, yet one of them won’t.

Terrible take. I’m personally not a fan of the super region format however, it “should” do what it was designed to do and get the best teams to the regional tournament and leave a team that was 1-7 in district play and a losing record on the season at the house.
