You may be right on the outcomes but if your two teams meet in Class A the bracket would have Columbia Falls hosting. Championship will play at Belgrade, Hamilton, Columbia Falls, or Sidney.

Oh really? I thought it would go to the higher seed. The bracket shows Home on the top bracket but I thought it still depends on what seed you were going into the tournament. Like if Sidney or Belgrade made it, they would host but since Columbia Falls was a two seed, they would travel if Dillon or Polson made it on the bottom side.

No, it's different than AA. In Class A the host for each game is fixed on the bracket. An exception is only made if two teams from the same conference meet. Then the higher seed (from within the same conference) always gets to host.

As an example this year you could have Columbia Falls advance to the Championship game. If they do they will host the Championship game over every other team EXCEPT for Polson. Polson as the NW conference champ would get to host over C. Falls the NW #2 team.

The same would apply to Hamilton. If they make it to the Championship game they will host it, UNLESS Dillon were to advance from the other bracket. In that case Dillon gets to host as #1 team from the SW conference while Hamilton was only the SW #2.

If Belgrade or Sidney reach the Championship game they will host regardless of which team advances from the lower bracket since each was the #1 team from their respective conferences.

Ah I see. I will change that one up then.
