2018 Division 1 District Scenarios

[granger]

DISTRICT OUTLOOK
DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 1
McLean is district champion. White Deer (-45) at Valley is for the runner-up.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 2
Nazareth (-1) at Petersburg. Winner gets title, loser, runner-up


DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 3
This one is a bit of a mess. Knox City (3-1) is open. Paducah (2-1) is at Northside (1-2). Chillicothe (0-3) is at Crowell (2-1). KC has a win over Crowell, who has a win over Paducah, who has a win over KC. We are looking at a three-way tie for all likelihood. If we go by points, then here’s a look at the games.

Knox City 62 Paducah 58
Paducah 87 Crowell 59
Crowell 95 Knox City 73

Assuming 18-point cap on points.
KC is 4 – 18 = -14
Paducah is -4 + 18 = 14
Crowell is -18 + 18 = 0

So, by this Paducah is district champ, Crowell is second.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 4
Ira (3-0) and has clinched the district title, although they are at Hermleigh. Aspermont is runner-up and is open.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 5
Wellman-Union (2-1) can play the spoiler here at Ropes (3-0). Morton (3-1) is open. Ropes (-39) can clinch with a win and send Morton as a runner-up. A loss and we’ve got a strange 3-way tie.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 6
Grady at Borden County (-45). Both teams are 3-0, so the winner wins the district title and the loser gets the second spot.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 7
Same situation for Rankin (-45) at Balmorhea. Both undefeated in district (2-0), so this is for placement.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 8
Garden City (-45) at Sterling City is another battle for all of the marbles, as both teams enter the game with perfect 3-0 district records.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 9
Newcastle (4-0) is the district champion and sits open this weekend. The remaining four teams are 1-2, which will make for an interesting Friday night. Bryson (-8) at Savoy and Saint Jo (-3) at Perrin-Whitt are games where the road teams are very slight favorites. Should that play out, Saint Jo gets the last spot. If Bryson and Perrin-Whitt win out, Bryson goes. If Perrin-Whitt and Savoy win, Perrin-Whitt advances.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 10
Blum (4-0) is open this week as the district champion. The big games are Abbott (1-2) at Aquilla (2-1) and Gholson (2-1) at Covington (0-3). Aquilla, a 30-point favorite, can make this easy with a win over their rival. A loss and Gholson can sneak in with a win.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 11
Milford (2-0) is in the driver’s seat here. A 45-point favorite over Avalon, they look to be on their way to another district title. Coolidge (1-1) at Penelope (0-2) is the other game. Yellowjackets are 45-point favorites themselves to grab the second playoff berth.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 12
This district finished up last week with Union Hill on top and High Island advancing in the second-place spot.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 13
Eden at Robert Lee (-20) will be for it all, as both are 3-0 in district.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 14
Lingleville (0-2) travels to district leader May (2-0) as a 45-point underdog. May should grab top honors. The other game features two 1-1 team as Gorman (-45) heads to Santa Anna. If the first result holds out, then this will be for the runner-up slot.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 15
After a big win over Zephyr last weekend, Jonesboro (2-0) heads to Evant (1-1) to try to grab the title outright. Zephyr (1-1) travels to Lometa (0-2). Should Jonesboro and Zephyr win out, Jonesboro is district champion, while Zephyr is runner-up. An Evant win could shake things up.

DIVISION 1 DISTRICT 16
Leakey (2-0) travels to Medina (1-1) to try and wrap up a district title. Nueces Canyon (1-1) hosts Prairie Lea (0-2) to try and secure the second spot. A Medina win could throw a wrench into the party, but unlikely as a 45-point underdog.

Is there a UIL standard tie breaker scenario? If not could you explain that 18 point rule in more detail. I've heard rumors of coin toss, points system, etc.

It is up to the districts on how they handle it I believe, and that is set up before the season starts at the district meetings I believe. Some have 18pts, some have 24pts caps and Im sure some have no caps but dont know for sure

so in that district 3 scenario how did you arrive at those numbers. is that worst loss best win I am confused

In most cases, when their is a three-way tie, you create a "mini-district" using on results among those teams. If no one wins that, then you got o point differential in games involving the 3 teams.

Knox City 62 Paducah 58
Paducah 87 Crowell 59
Crowell 95 Knox City 73

Knox City beat Paducah by 4.
Paducah beat Crowell by 28 (but capped at 18).
Corwell beat Knox City by 22 (but capped at 18).

KC is +4 and -18 and winds up with -14.
Paducah is -4 and +18 and winds up with +14.
Crowell is -18 and _18 and winds up with 0.

14 - Paducah
0 - Crowell
-14 - KC

Isn't Gholson 1-2 in district?

If Abbott were to pull off the upset this week, in Aquilla, then wouldn' t there be a 3 way tie for 2nd place?

How would that one be decided?

Im sure im wrong on this but ill give it a shot

Aquilla is +24 from beating Gholson
Gholson is 0 - +24 for Abbott win and -24 for Aquilla loss
Abbott is -24 for Gholson loss

So i believe Abbott would have to beat Aquilla by 24 and Gholson would have lose for Abbott to be in playoffs but im not 100% sure on it all to be completely honest
