PROJECTED SEEDS

PROJECTED REGIONAL QUARTERFINAL PAIRINGS
BYES: No. 1 Raines, No. 2 West Nassau
No. 5 Rutherford at No. 4 Marianna
No. 6 Andrew Jackson at No. 3 South Walton
QUICK THOUGHTS: The impacts of Hurricane Michael are still being felt on this region, but most teams inside the playoff hunt have made a return to the field or looking to make a return. The only shift seen right now is South Walton moving up to the No. 3 seed while Rutherford falls to the No. 5 seed. However, there is no indication, yet, that Rutherford may continue on with their season as they are in one of the hardest hit areas in Panama City.
REGION 2
| Team | Record | Avg |
| Santa Fe (Alachua) | 5-3 | 39.88 |
| Bradford | 4-4 | 39.13 |

PROJECTED REGIONAL QUARTERFINAL PAIRINGS
BYES: No. 1 Santa Fe, No. 2 Bradford
No. 5 South Sumter at No. 4 The Villages
No. 6 Dunnellon at No. 3 P.K. Yonge
QUICK THOUGHTS: After a huge win last week over Baldwin, Santa Fe jumps into the No. 1 seeding spot here in this region with Bradford shifting back to No. 2. P.K. Yonge and The Villages hold steady with the No. 3 and No. 4 seeds respectively, but South Sumter and Dunnellon swap spots as South Sumter picked up a huge victory last week over Crystal River to move them up.
REGION 3
| Team | Record | Avg |
| Cocoa | 6-2 | 42.00 |
| Bishop Verot | 7-2 | 40.56 |

PROJECTED REGIONAL QUARTERFINAL PAIRINGS
BYES: No. 1 Cocoa, No. 2 Bishop Verot
No. 5 LaBelle at No. 4 Avon Park
No. 6 Oasis at No. 3 LaBelle
QUICK THOUGHTS: Another week, another shift in this region. Cocoa jumps up to the No. 1 seed after being No. 4 last week thanks to a huge win over Bartram Trail with Bishop Verot and Avon Park both falling in games. Bishop Verot falls to the No. 2 seed while Avon Park drops to the No. 4 seed. Astronaut moves up from the No. 5 seed to the No. 3 seed while Oasis would be in thanks to a tiebreaker at the No. 6 seed.
REGION 4
| Team | Record | Avg |
| University School | 8-0 | 41.25 |
| Booker T. Washington | 4-5 | 39.11 |
| Glades Central | 5-3 | 38.50 |
| Monsignor Pace | 5-4 | 37.44 |
| Gulliver Prep | 5-3 | 36.00 |
| Key West | 4-4 | 35.75 |

PROJECTED SEEDS
No. 1 University School
No. 2 Booker T. Washington
No. 3 Glades Central
No. 4 Monsignor Pace
No. 5 Gulliver Prep
No. 6 Key West*
*TIEBREAKER: Key West would win tiebreaker over Pine Crest with a Head to Head win.
PROJECTED REGIONAL QUARTERFINAL PAIRINGS
BYES: No. 1 University School, No. 2 Booker T. Washington
No. 5 Gulliver Prep at No. 4 Monsignor Pace
No. 6 Key West at No. 3 Glades Central
QUICK THOUGHTS: The top two seeds remain unchanged and shouldn’t expect to change with the remainder of the schedule that is left for both teams. Glades Central rises to the No. 3 seed after a big win over American Heritage (Delray) while Monsignor Pace moves to the No. 4 seed. Gulliver Prep remains the same at No. 5 with Key West getting the No. 6 seed with the tiebreaker of Pine Crest listed above. However, Pine Crest, North Broward Prep and Coral Springs Charter all in play a seed here with two weeks to go.
