MPSSAA Section Standings - updated 2/22/19
MPSSAA Section Standings - Updated on 2/22/19
All MCPS schools are placed into an MPSSAA region for the state tournament, and all regions are divided into two sections. The MCPS schools are spread across five different sections. The teams' win percentage (not including December holiday tournaments) is used to seed the teams, regardless of what county they may reside.
These results have been updated after games on Friday, February 22nd.
4A West Region Section 1 Standings
1. Churchill - 95.00% (19-1) - season complete
2. Whitman - 85.00% (17-3) - season complete
3. BCC - 65.00% (13-7) - season complete
4. WJ - 60.00% (12-8) - season complete

6. Kennedy - 5.00% (1-19) - season complete
7. Wheaton - 5.00% (1-19) - season complete
Churchill sealed up the #1 seed with dominating wins over Gaithersburg and RM and their season is complete. Whitman will be the #2 seed as they close their season on Friday with Magruder.
As predicted, BCC has wrapped up the #3 seed with their win over RM. BCC finishes with a game with Blair while WJ should beat Northwest. WJ's loss to Sherwood last week and their head to head loss to BCC is the difference in the seeding. WJ will host a home game as the #4 seed. Einstein has only won 2 of their last 6 games, but they secured no worse than the #5 seed many weeks ago.
With their loss to Springbrook, Wheaton finishes with the #7 seed and Kennedy the #6 seed. Kennedy beat Wheaton by 1 point in the regular season....
4A West Section 1 Playoff matchups
#1 Churchill - bye
#2 Whitman vs #7 Wheaton
#3 BCC vs #6 Kennedy
#4 WJ vs #5 Einstein
4A West Region Section 2 Standings
1. Clarksburg - 78.95% (15-5) - season complete
2. Quince Orchard - 70.00% (14-6) - season complete
3. Richard Montgomery - 55.00% (11-9) - season complete

5. Northwest - 30.00% (6-14) - season complete
6. Wootton - 5.00% (1-19) - season complete
Clarksburg clinched the #1 seed several weeks ago. As predicted, QO has clinched the #2 seed with 10 wins in their last 11 games.
Richard Montgomery rebounded from the loss to Churchill on Thursday night to beat Seneca Valley by a point on Friday, 38-37. Gaithersburg led QO but could not close out the game and lost, falling to 10-10. As predicted, RM earned the 3 seed and Gaithersburg falls to the 4 seed.
Northwest and Wootton will finish as the 5 and 6 seeds.
The section tournament could be interesting. While Clarksburg won by 20 over QO, they lost to RM and beat Gaithersburg twice by a combined six points. It's all about matchups!
4A West Section 2 Playoff matchups
#1 Clarksburg - bye
#2 Quince Orchard - bye
#3 RM vs #6 Wootton
#4 Gaithersburg vs #5 Northwest
4A North Region Section 2 Standings
1a. Paint Branch - 85.00% (17-3) - season completed
1b. Sherwood - 85.00% (17-3) - season complete
3. Urbana - 40.0% (8-12) - season completed
4. Blair - 36.84% (7-12) - season complete
5. Springbrook - 35.00% (7-13) - season completed
6. Northwood - 35.00% (7-12) - season complete
This section isn't finished yet!
Paint Branch and Sherwood will be the top two seeds and have first-round byes. Damascus did Sherwood a huge favor with an upset of Paint Branch, allowing the Warriors to draw even at 16-3. Paint Branch traveled to Clarksburg on Thursday and beat the Coyotes to finish 17-3. Sherwood withstood a strong shooting night by Blake to win by 8 and force a coin flip to determine the #1 seed! The coin flip will be Tuesday.
There was a chance for some chaos in the rest of the section, but things were a little calmer than anticipated.
Urbana has finished their season at 8-12 and earned the #3 seed.
As expected, Blair lost to BCC to fall to 7-12 and finish with the #4 seed. However, since Watkins Mill upset Northwood on Thursday, Northwood falls to the #6 seed (they could have had the 3 seed with a win and a lucky coin flip) and Blair gets to host a home game against Springbrook. Springbrook held the head-to-head tiebreaker over Northwood.
4A North Section 2 Playoff matchups
#1 Paint Branch / Sherwood - bye
#2 Paint Branch / Sherwood - bye
#3 Urbana vs #6 Northwood
#4 Blair vs #5 Springbrook
3A West Section 1 Standings
1. Westminster - 75.00% (15-5) - season complete
2. Rockville - 60.00% (12-8) - season complete
3. Manchester Valley - 38.89% (7-11) - 1 games left on Monday
4. Blake - 35.00% (7-13) - season complete
5. Watkins Mill - 30.00% (6-14) - season complete
6. Magruder - 0% (0-20) - season complete
The section championship goes through Carroll County. Westminster is 13-5 with remaining games against Liberty and Glenelg and they will be favored over both teams. Westminster will hold the #1 seed.
Rockville has been one of the great surprises in MCPS play this year. As predicted, they sit at 12-8 and have earned the #2 seed.
Currently, Manchester Valley sits as the #3 seed at 7-10. They had a game canceled on Wednesday due to snow against Owings Mill that would have been a win. The loss of this game could really hurt them in seeding as they likely end up with only 19 games that count in seeding. The worst they can finish is 7-12.
Blake had a big win over Springbrook but lost to Sherwood despite a strong shooting night to finish 7-13 as the 4 seed.
Watkins Mill takes the #5 seed and got a big win in overtime over Northwood. Magruder will be the #6 seed.
3A West Section 1 Playoff matchups
#1 Westminster - bye
#2 Rockville - bye
#3 Manchester Valley vs #6 Magruder
#4 Blake vs #5 Watkins Mill
2A West Section 2 Standings
1. Middletown - 87.51% (18-3) - season completed

3a. Damascus - 70.00% (14-6) - season completed

5a. Seneca Valley - 50.00% (10-10) - season completed

PROJECTIONS - 1. Middletown, 2. Poolesville, 3/4 - coin flip, 5/6 - coin flip
This gets the vote for the MOST COMPETITIVE section in MPSSAA this year.
Middletown earned the # 1 seed last week even though they lost the Frederick County Championship this week to Frederick HS.
Poolesville has done a great job protecting the #2 seed as well as the defending MPSSAA 2A State Champions beat Clarksburg, Kennedy, and then stopped Damascus' 7 game win streak to run their current win streak to 12 games.
Damascus had a very impressive last few weeks with a big win over Paint Branch after a big win over Clarksburg and have proven that the projections in this blog are always up to be decided on the court (great job, Hornets!). They lost the MCPS 3A2A Division Championship on Friday when their 7 game win streak ended at Poolesville. Walkersville stumbled in an upset to Urbana but turned it around with a win over Boonsboro.
Damascus and Walkersville both finish 14-6 and a coin flip will determine that #3 seed.
Seneca Valley fought RM bravely, but their chance to win went in and out with 5 seconds left to lose 38-37. The Eagles are 10-10 and in danger of having a coin flip with Williamsport for the #5/6 seeds. Williamsport sits at 9-10 with a game on Friday night vs South Hagerstown.
