Sections Contest!

[SEhockeyDAD]

Make your predictions. Which teams win each section, both single and double A, as well as each 2nd place team. Best score is 24. <br><br>Lets wait until sections seeds, I guess. In the mean time, study up! <p></p><i></i>

[boblee]

sounds good, what is the tie-breaker? <p></p><i></i>

[old kentucky shark]

Does anyone know when the brackets for the various sections will be announced? Does MSHSL site usually have them, or is there someone quicker? <p></p><i></i>

[Rocketwrister]

Brackets are on the MSHSL website. <p>www.rebelhockey.com</p><i></i>

[xk1]

I think he wants to know when the actual teams are known. Wll the info be anywhere before the MSHSL gets around to updating their site. <p></p><i></i>

[STCplaya18]

Probably not, I always go to MSHSL for brackets. <p></p><i></i>

[hockeydad]

I got an idea....<br><br>Take a piece of paper and look up the pairings and draw your own brackets.<br><br>then, as each section championship is decided, write down the winner on your paper.<br><br>when all 12 sections are done, you've got the info<br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :lol --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/laugh.gif ALT=":lol"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>Sorry, I'm in a nasty mood today <p></p><i></i>

[mnpokecheck]

Some of the brackets are just out-- click on B in last column for that sections bracket.<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.mshsl.org/mshsl/activitypage ... <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> <p></p><i></i>

Now, I am not overly familiar with many of the Metro teams, but based on my precise calculations, and my SWAG factor (scientific wild-ass guess), this is my shot in the dark!<br><br>Class A:<br>Section:<br>1: New Prague / Austin<br>2: Alex Lady Cards <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/glasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> / Tot-Gr<br>3: Warroad / Hibbing <br>4: Blake / SSP<br><br>Class AA:<br>Section:<br>1: Mayo / Lakeville N<br>2: Roseville / Sibley<br>3: NSP / Stillwater <br>4: Coon Rapids / Anoka<br>5: CDH / Eagan<br>6: EP / BSM<br>7: Cloquet / GRG<br>8: Bemidji / ER<br><br>(Edited to include #2's)<br>So, where is everybody else? <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p100.ezboard.com/bmnhs.showUserP ... d@mnhs>Big Red</A> at: 2/6/06 9:54 am<br></i>

Krach has Stillwater above NSP, does that change your mind? <p></p><i></i>

[Big Red]

NSP was my intent.<br><br>I guess I was in a little bit of a hurry and didn't double check.<br>So I am a wee bit off straight alignment with Krach.<br><br>I was feeling a little bit guilty for not being more original.<br>But thanks for the heads up.<br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/glasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

[hockeykid14]

[boblee]

we need some sort of tie-beaker. <p></p><i></i>

[ghshockeyfan]

Go with scores in finals. Closest to actual wins in tie (have to have right teams in final too). <p></p><i></i>

[boblee]

ok, that could still warrant a tie, however. example...each person gets all right (24 pts). Then they split the closest guesses 12-12...then its still tied. <p></p><i></i>

[ghshockeyfan]

Have 'em pick one upset in the earlier rounds of each section? <p></p><i></i>

[boblee]

pick one upset in the first round of each section. if the section has 16 teams, like in A, or if there is only 7 teams, pick from the first round. Play in games do not count. <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p100.ezboard.com/bmnhs.showUserP ... >boblee</A> at: 2/7/06 12:38 pm<br></i>

[ghshockeyfan]

Sounds good to me! - although I suppose they'll just go through each section and pick 5 to beat 4? etc.??? <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p100.ezboard.com/bmnhs.showUserP ... ckeyfan</A> at: 2/7/06 12:42 pm<br></i>

[xk1]

Do like they do in football pools, assign a weight to each of the 12 games, 1-12. So if you think NP is a lock, you give it a 12. If you think SW vs NSP could go either way, give it 1, etc. <p></p><i></i>

[boblee]

ah, thats much easier, lets try that <p></p><i></i>

[ghshockeyfan]

xk1 to the rescue! THANKS!!! <p></p><i></i>
