Just looking at Long Island. #229 is 10-0 #1 seed, no surprise there. #234 has 2 losses BOTH to #229 and are sitting in #3. FIRST silliness with the seeding is to blame here.
Not taking anything away from #1203, but they never played against #870 or #229, they played with #229 & #234 and their 1 match against #234 they lost in a landslide.
I would rather that FIRST just stopped calling them seeding matches. They can hire a
Handicapper General to design the game and write the rules and be done with it.
