Playoff Format and Seeding
To enter District IV playoffs for the 2025 season, "1A", "2A" and "3A" teams must have a .500 or better record or a power ranking higher than those teams that do to qualify for district play. A minimum of four (4) teams in each classification will qualify for District Playoffs. If a classification does not have at least 4 teams with a .500 record (or a team with a power ranking higher than a .500 team) or better, the top four (4) teams by power ranking will qualify for the tournament. This is to promote a true tournament with at least a semi-final and final. Tournament play or pool play cannot be considered. We will be using the District IV power ranking system for seeding. Please make sure your school updates their scores in a timely manner as outline below.
Schools are required to input their scores/results into the Gimpware Power Rating system within 24 hours of completion of the contest. All scores must be reported prior to the regular season deadline established by each individual sport regardless of record or participation in playoffs as ALL games played will affect overall Power Ratings. Schools failing to meet this regular season deadline will be subject to a $100 fine per sport.
All games must be completed by Thursday, October 23, 2025. The seeding will be done on Friday, October 24, 2025. Again, seeding will be done by following the power ranking system.
The playoff format will be the same as last year; best three out of five in head-to-head competitions with rally scoring. One team in 3A, one team in 2A and one team in 1A will advance to the state tournament. Please check the PIAA website for bracketing information.
