Each year, HighSchoolOT provides extensive playoff projections for all of the NCHSAA’s seeded playoffs. This winter, we are providing those projections for the boys basketball playoffs in all classifications.
Projections are dependent on the RPI system, which is updated in real-time rather than once a week.
For a playoff bracket explainer, check out this column from Nick Stevens on RPI, seeding, and tiebreakers.
Download the HighSchoolOT.com app on your phone or tablet to get updates on playoff projections as soon as they are released. The app will also alert you when the final brackets are released by the NCHSAA.
Each link below will be updated periodically.
