From what I can see the "Walker System" is just some people picking whatever team they want.
Look at West division 4.
Seed 1: Lenox (7-9-2)
Seed 2: Pioneer Valley Reg (9-3-3)
Seed 3: Westfield Tech (17-1-0) really (19-1-0) but will explain that later.
Doesn't make sense, so maybe the factor in which opponents are in a higher division and made it into the playoffs?
Lenox had no wins over an opponent in a higher division that made it into the playoffs. They did have 4 wins over other d4 teams that made it in though. They tied 2 games to d3 teams that made it in. As a note, Lenox also did not have a single win in their class grouping (0-6-2).
Pioneer Valley Reg had 1 win over a d3 opponent that made it into the playoffs, and 2 wins against d4 teams that made it in. They tied 2 games to a d1 team that also made it in.
Westfield Tech played in the MVADA Small (Voc/Tech) State Championship, and won it, so played 2 more games than either of the other teams, which we won't count. They had 3 wins against a d1 opponent that made it into the playoffs. 2 wins against d3 teams that made it in, but we won't count as it was an extra game, so 1 win. 5 wins against d4 teams that made it in, again one won't count as it was an extra game, so 4 wins.
Any way you cut it, logic would state that Westfield Tech, should be seed #1. Pioneer Valley Reg as seed #2, and Lenox as not winning half their games should not even be in the tournament. But somehow they are Seed #1????
Tell me someone is not getting some good money for that seeding!
What a joke!
