Spike for Tykes is being held Friday, looks like pool play and bracket placement will be according to state ranking. State Polls were just released for this week.

With St Xavier being the only top 4 DI team participating, they will likely be the favorite. Westerville South is the only other team participating that also played in the Elite last week.

In D2, the top 5 teams will all be there headlined by the top two Hoban and Alter.

I'll post the pools once they're released.
 
 
Pool A:
St. Xavier
Olentangy Liberty
Pickerington North

Pool B:
Alter
McNick
Worthington Kilbourne

Pool C:
Hoban
St. Francis DeSales
Chillicothe

Pool D:
Westerville South
Bishop Fenwick
Gahanna Lincoln

Pool E:
Northmont
Westerville North
Dublin Coffman

Pool F:
Hilliard Davidson
Jackson
Middletown

Pool G:
Olentangy
Walsh Jesuit
Westerville Central

Pool H:
Stow-Munroe Falls
Centerville
Reynoldsburg

Pool play is 1 set to 25 vs both opponents. Pool play determines gold/silver/bronze bracket. Bracket is as follows:

A v H winner plays winner of D v E
C v F winner plays winner of B v G
 
Why on earth is Alter seeded second in this tournament??

This will mean that St. X and West. South could end up playing in the semi-final.
 
Agreed.

1. St X
2. West South
3. Hoban
4. Alter

They should include an all-state team power ranking like the NBA does. That would be cool.
