I know there are now 4 regions in Class 4, but does anyone know how seeding is determined?
Regional Question

Most regions use a point system for seeding. For example, 3B uses:
9 pts for 4A-6A win
8 pts for 1A-3A win
0 pts for 1A-3A loss
1 pt for 4A loss
2 pts for 5A loss
3 pts for 6A loss
Divide your # of points gained, by number of games, you get a rating. Number of regional qualifying teams, format of tournament, etc. is decided by region.
Hope this helps.

This helps a lot. Do all the regions in Class 4 use this, or does it vary?
The numbers may vary, but it'll be roughly the same deal.
Spoke to the Courtland AD while I was at their game against Eastern View this afternoon. He talked about the point system mentioned above, and also told me that Class 4 Region B will be taking all 13 of its teams into the regional tourney. Could really make for some interesting March Madness-esque scenarios.
Anyone could come out of that region. Not too impressed with any team from region B to win it all though
Yeah I think there are several good teams in Region B, but I don’t know that any of them match up too well with Loudoun Valley or Lake Taylor. We shall see though.
Yeah I believe so. I personally like the regions doing this, as it promotes more competition and that “March Madness” atmosphere. When you think about it, the teams that finish near the bottom of the power point standings and are seeded lower still must face the challenge of going on the road to the higher seed(s), so I think the trade-off of allowing all teams into the tourney versus rewarding the teams that had good regular seasons is fair and balanced.
Region D takes top 8 teams based on overall winning percentage 1 plays 8 and so on. Higher seed hosts all the way through. Top 2 advance to state.
