Bounce 16 Red is playing in 18s. Adversity 16 Purple isn’t as good as years past.

SPRI no longer has Mizuno as their sponsor. They are now sponsored by Under Armour, which is why the did away with the Mizuno type names.

Can you help educate me on how you can tell the seeding? |

Can you help educate me on how you can tell the seeding? The number in the () is what seed they are. As to how the teams were actually seeded, only Adam Beck would know that one exactly. Probably based on past years for respective teams, but not for certain. Usually this first weekend weeds out the issue of uncertain teams. |

The top 4 teams were the only undefeated; in parentheses is the most points scored against in a game.
1) SPVB 16-1 (21)
2) Ultimate 16-1 (22)
3) Hitmen 16-1 (16)
4) Uno 16-1 (17)
Hitmen played very disciplined ball with very few errors, but nothing spectacular. They won't lose unless they get beat. SPVB, on the other hand, has good talent but makes tons of unforced errors. They can easily lose without getting beat. Uno was very impressive. I'm guessing in the next round they'll all win thier QF match, but then 4 beats 1, 3 beats 2, and in the finals 3 beats 2 to take the #1 spot.
Kudos to Ultimate for getting 4 teams into the top 16.

Honestly, I think all of SPRI, Ultimate, Hitmen, and Uno will be competitive this year for 16s, however I think Ultimate and Hitmen will be the best. They have more overall talent, and game changers, whereas I think Uno and SPRI have less depth.

I think D1 16 Green also went 6-0 True statement, but they dropped a game to Adversity, so they were 12-1 in games. |

Big day for uno beats hitmen spri and ultimate.
Thought bounces 15 red looked good against spri but losing caused the wheels to fall off the next match.
Hpstl came in with some size but fall out of bracket a tomorrow. I think they will have a good day tomorrow.
Hitmen got the short straw today playing uno first. I think they are one of the top 3 teams along with uno and ultimate. Tomorrow hitmen play spvb first match. I like hitmen to win that and the rematch against uno tomorrow.
My predictions,
Ultimate 16 gold, hitmen 16, uno 16, d1, spvb, ultimate 16 black, hitmen 15, club 1.

Today Hitmen came up big and won in a battle against Ultimate, who battled Uno yesterday and D1 twice.
Saturday:
1. Uno
2. Ultimate
3. D1
4. SPVB
5. Hitmen
Sunday:
1. Hitmen
2. Ultimate
3. D1
4. Uno
5.SPVB
This leaves Ultimate at first in points so far. Uno and Hitmen seem more polished now, but ultimate has more potnetional throughout the season. It will be interesting to see how Bounce, MVC, and Sting are ranked come next Palos.

As someone who is newer to the scene, will all three of those clubs have teams that are put into A bracket?
I think there is a fairly wide gap between the top five teams and everyone else. Without watching every match, it sure does seem that all of the other teams playing the morning wave at Palos are fairly even. I could see just about any of those teams beating each other.

Is Bounce's 16 Red team the top in the region? They're competing very well against 18s competition, should be interesting to see how they do when they play 16s.
