Each year, HighSchoolOT provides extensive playoff projections for all of the NCHSAA’s seeded playoffs. This spring, we are providing those projections for the softball playoffs in all classifications.

Projections are dependent on the RPI system, which is updated in real-time rather than once a week. Subscribe to email alerts to be notified when projections are updated. We also recommend bookmarking this page.
