***LaJolla Country Day's record was 24-8; the record was revised on March 6 to reflect 14 games forfeited.
Who plays in the SoCal Regionals:
In Division I, the Central Section sends one (1) entry, Southern Section gets four (4) (the Champions and runners up in D-IA and D-IAA), San Diego gets one (1), and Los Angeles gets (2) (the "City Champion" and the runner-up; the "Invitational Champion" doesn't play in the State Tournament).
In all the other Divisions, (II, III, IV and V) Central Section sends both the champion and the runner-up (2), Southern Section sends four (4) (again the champion and the runner up in each AA and A division, except D-IIIAA, which was combined this year, and in which all four semifinalists will go), and San Diego also gets two (2), the champions and runners-up from each section. Got it? Good.
We won't bother with an explanation of how the seeding committee did its thing because it's too esoteric and really will only interest the particular teams involved in the tournament. If you want a full explanation, you'll have to get a CIF Manual; you can, however get a reasonable explanation at the CIF State website (which also has the brackets posted, along with a lot of other information that may or may not be of interest to some of you).
And finally, before we post the brackets, you'll want to know what "seeding" and "travel priorities" are. The following explanation is applicable to all the brackets below:
Seeding: Basically, the way seeding and travel priorities work is this: A CIF Section’s No. 1 entry (i.e., the section champion) shall be designated as the "home team" in the first round when paired with a team of a lesser designation. Seeding really only applies in the first round.
Travel Priorities: In the second round, when a team with a higher priority number plays a lower priority number, the lower priority number team gets to ride the bus, and the higher number gets to stay home. Basically, assigning these numbers in advance avoids the need to do coin flips, and gives the rest of us certainty about who the host team will be (not that this will matter, because some of the host teams don't have gyms big enough to use in a State Tournament, so the games will wind up at some alternate site anyway). But for now, this is the best way we can explain it.
