I could see Midkota and Harvey pulling upsets in the first round. Kindred could if they bring their A game against Grafton. Should be a fun tournament to watch!

Watford? Number 1? Whatever.

I think Grafton should've been 1 and Thompson 2 but I would say the rest of the teams are evenly matched

Three of the games will be good. Watford imo will not win a game.

Any radio stations carrying the state.

They're something like 24-1 not? I don't know if there are many common opponents but I believe I remember L&C playing Midkota and only losing by a couple runs, and I'm pretty sure Watford handled L&C.

Seriously was shocked that Hazen didn't receive a seed. They played in quite possibly the toughest region (Kidder County, Shiloh, Hazen & Beulah) in the State...and proved how good they were today against Thompson.

They are very good team, but they were not the number one seed in their region. It was one of the toughest but voters look at things like that.

I too agree Hazen should have gotten a seed...the 4 top teams in Region 8 were all very good. I agree the best overall region in the state. I have a problem with Watford as the #1 seed. Don't get me wrong they are a very solid team but play in a tremendously weak region.

BOOM! Watford didn't lose a game.
