Teams qualified for the postseason through their regular season performance. Each league champion automatically qualified for the state tournament, and the other spots were determined by the CHSAA Selection & Seeding Index, with the consideration that two teams within the same league couldn’t match up in the first round.
In the 4A and 5A brackets, two teams were flipped to avoid league matchups. In 4A, Eagle Valley went to No. 27 and Silver Creek to No. 26, and in 5A, Fossil Ridge went to No. 18 and Castle View to No. 19.
Follow the 3A bracket, 4A bracket and 5A bracket throughout the tournament to find results, match times and opponents.
