random comments, etc, covering all of the Wyoming posts
-- Never heard of flighting ANYTHING at the high school level, so that's definitely different.
-- the 2/3 format is at least more recognizable to me, since Georgia is 3 singles/2 doubles
-- never knew anybody did mixed doubles in HS either
-- seeding in Wyoming is similar to GA too -- regular season only impact region seeding. But here, the state tournament is strictly by the numbers (8 regions, 1-4 (south) and 5-8 (north) always pair up within their subset, rotating the first round pairing each year
-- re: your margin between players 5-12 ... that's somewhat similar to what we experienced in HS (varies by program of course) but once the top 7 were set pre-season, rarely did it change. Was like pulling teeth to get a ladder match and if you weren't top 7 in week one, your varsity hopes were pretty much done (aside from a pity appearance in a lopsided affair or something)
