The voters inverted SW/CDH for 3/4 and Tartan/WBL for 6/7.

So how are section seedings determined? Meeting of coaches, everyone pleading their case, best overall record, best KRACH/other ranking systems, head-to-head, intangibles, voting and re-voting, etc.?

Politics? Positioning ones team to do well...

My memory is fading, but this was how I remember 10 of these sessions going:

1) Consider head-to-head
2) Common opponents (score diff if similar W/L/T results)
3) Strength of schedule & overall record
4) Other accomplishments and/or extenuating circumstances faced
(Computerized rankings were rarely, if ever, discussed)

Coaches rank every team but their own, usually high and low ranks are thrown out as to not skew the average.

Coaches usually were able to first give a couple minute high-level summary of their season and where they see their team falling.

These were sometimes frustrating, sometimes funny, or somewhere inbetween.

I remember my first seeding mtg (back when there was only one class - so about a dozen teams per section) and everyone was making their 2 minute talk about the four items above and then came the coach of a small-school team with little to say about on-ice accomplishments. He simply said "we're really good in the classroom"

That's what I recall anyway.

Looks like this was updated for 2013:

PS - It's great to see winning seasons out of #5 NSP & #6 Tartan this season with some credit needing to go to solid 1st year female coaches. Well done!

Hey Spar,

Good Luck Pioneers!

That's awesome! Congrats Pioneers & good luck at State!!

Thanks Sparlimb!!

Crowd was nice. Maybe 2/3's full and certainly more than will be their for boys quarterfinals. Didn't hear final shots, but the difference ended up being Roseville 0-4 on PP and HM 2-2.

And my son said he saw a tweet that IRONDALE beat Mounds View. What a night, my two favorite teams won...

HM #3 seed? What time are they announced? Congrats to the Knights as well.
