4A East Girls Tennis Projection

Time of last update — Tuesday, Sept. 17 at 2:51 p.m.

Automatic bids

• Note: Where there is a currently-unbreakable tie for an automatic bid, we are using RPI (which is how the NCHSAA breaks ties that cannot be done by head-to-head or “best win”). If projections are updated before conference play begins, we use RPI to project the conference champion.
• Conference champs are in bold. Conference champs who would not be seeded as conference champs if the playoffs began today are in bold italics.

*All American 1-seed: Pine Forest
*Big Carolina 1-seed: New Bern
Cap-6 champ: Cardinal Gibbons
Cap-6 2nd place: Broughton
DAC-VI champ: Chapel Hill
DAC-VI 2nd place: East Chapel Hill
Greater Neuse River champ: Corinth Holders
Greater Neuse River 2nd place: Cleveland
*Mideastern 1-seed: New Hanover
Northern Athletic champ: Millbrook
Northern Athletic 2nd place: Wakefield
*Sandhills 1-seed: Pinecrest
Southwest Wake champ: Green Hope
Southwest Wake 2-seed: Green Level
*United 8 1-seed: Lumberton

*-Split conference with 3A schools — 1-seeds must have an overall win percentage of .500 or better OR finish in the top three in the conference standings to be seeded with the 1-seeds, or else be seeded with the 2s and wild-cards.

Last five in, first five out

• Note: We will start to implement the “no leapfrogging” stipulation two weeks before official brackets come out. This rule prevents a team from making the playoffs over a team that it finished behind in the final conference standings. Once this process is implemented, there could be changes towards the bottom of the field.

In:

28. Gray’s Creek
29. Wakefield
30. Wake Forest
31. Apex
32. Apex Friendship

Out:

1. South Garner
2. Jack Britt
3. Overhills
4. Ashley
5. Middle Creek
