Interesting - didn't realize regions could (and actually) do their tournament formats differently. Good to know - thanks for the info!
Think I actually like having the district tourney mean something (versus all-in again for regionals). But I suppose also good that those players can continue their season bit longer.
Any case, looks like Region D tourney will be Madison/Westfields/Oakton/Centreville and then Langley/Yorktown/McLean/W&L(!). Should be great.
Fully agree, district tourney should mean something. Hate how Fairfax County differs in their rules for many things including scheduling regular season games.

Thanks for the summary!

Same - I saw McLean post after they won their quarterfinal game that they had qualified for Regionals.

Right - think everyone who makes their district semis (Patriot, Concorde, Liberty, Gunston) makes region C & D tourney (which would include LB). But if don't make your district semis this year, thought you might be done for the season. Again could be wrong on that.

Wow. Kudos to WestPo. I also heard Maryland commit scored 13 of the goals? And he's a D, not an attack.
Congrats to West Po - and congrats to rankings editor who noted LB would have to avoid looking ahead to district finals. Would love to hear if stat above is true - wild if their D-pole scored that many (esp. with no adjustment from LB) but also testament to kid just deciding to take over a game...
He's a great player but definitely did not score 13 goals. Maybe 2 goals and 4 assists.

Is that true? Know last year it seemed like everyone made regionals but I thought with some of the realignment this year, regionals were going to be a 8-team tournament this year - i.e., 8 teams from Region C's 16 teams, 8 teams from Region D's 13 teams, etc. Maybe I have that wrong. Think the state tournament was expanded this year to 8 teams (not just regional winners but also runner ups so maybe I'm confusing with that).
