Below is the timetable and procedures for release of the final 2018 Class A Basketball Power Ratings, appeals and seeding of the playoff brackets, as well as the “At Large” playoff teams in Class 7A:
Feb. 10th - Region tournaments in all classifications must be completed and results entered into the MaxPreps web site.
Feb. 12th - State qualifiers from each region in Classes 2A through 7A (except for the 7A “At Large” teams) must be submitted to GHSA office by 9:00 a.m.
Feb. 12th - MaxPreps’ final power ratings will be posted on the GHSA web site.
Feb. 13th:
(1) Any Class A school that believes its final power rating is incorrect may file an appeal in writing to GHSA basketball coordinator Ernie Yarbrough (ery@ghsa.net) between 8-11 a.m. The appeal letter must be accompanied by a complete list of results and points earned for each game.
(2) A GHSA Appeals Committee will meet to verify the results (including the appeals), and to break ties.
(3) The results of the appeals and the resulting playoff brackets (including the 7A "At Large" teams) will be posted later that day on the GHSA web site.
Notes:
(1) Teams winning a Region championship will be placed in the Class A brackets (public school or private school) first based on their power rating numbers.
(2) Once the brackets are posted, no further appeals will be considered.
