If the high school postseason started today, Radford High School would be hosting Patrick County in the opening round of Region 2C.
Radford is currently at number three in the latest Virginia High School League points rankings.
Glenvar leads 2C with 21 points and would host the eighth seed in Martinsville. Floyd is the number two seed with 20.714 points and would be facing Appomattox. Number 4 Gretna would host Nelson County. The final two could flip places according to the last few weeks of the regular season.
Radford could also move into the second spot if they could beat Floyd in the final week’s matchup.
In 1C, Bath County sets atop of the region and would face Galax. Giles is the seventh seed and would travel to second seed George Wythe. Third-seeded Parry McCluer would face Craig County. The fourth and fifth seeds are Narrows and Grayson County.
In 3D, Christiansburg is currently the fifth seed and would have to travel to last year’s matchup with Magna Vista. Lord Botetourt moved into the top spot and would host Bassett. Second seeded Abingdon would face Northside. Sixth seeded Carroll County would face former top seed William Byrd. Less than a full point separates No. 1 Lord Botetourt and No. 2 Abingdon.
Botetourt will square off with William Byrd, thus forcing a change in the seedings.
If Christiansburg picks up a win over Patrick Henry or Salem, then they could flip spots with Magna Vista and thus host the opening round.
In 4D, George Washington is the top seed with 27.714 points and would be hosting eighth seeded E.C. Glass. Jefferson Forest is the second seed and would host Amherst. Salem is the current sixth seed and would face Sharando. Mechlenburg and Handley would fill out the fourth and fifth spots.
