There’s still one week left of the regular season, but with district play over, the postseason matchups are set as each team begins their hopeful journey to Kroger Field in Lexington the first weekend in December.
From 6A to 1A, here are the first and second round playoff matchups. Keep in mind, come the third round, matchups revert to RPI to determine matchups. In the third round, Districts 1-4 and 5-8 are paired with one another based off RPI with the top two in RPI in each pod hosting the bottom two. Once the regular season is over, the RPI freezes at that point.
