This one is all over the place, which is understandable when 4 of the 6 top RPIs are clustered in the East. Still … a Xavier-Wash district rematch, when Fort Madison is going through CR on their way to Waverly anyway? Xavier gets no favors with Bondurant-Farrar in the second round, either … that is one tough 7 seed. And how about 8 seed Spencer getting the 15th seed for their matchup? Yes, Western Dubuque to Spencer is probably too long of a trip, but Indianola or Newton or Webster City couldn’t have fit against Spencer? Not that Glenwood is an easy 15 seed for Spencer to face - that’s still a tough one.
Also, a tough outcome for Marion … they actually finished 16th in RPI with a 5-4 record (after going 1-8 last year), but had the bad luck to have CR Wash right behind them at 17. Since Wash defeated Marion early in the season, tgey got the last spot and Marion was left out.
