Automatic bids
- Note: Where there is a currently-unbreakable tie for an automatic bid, we are using RPI (which is how the NCHSAA breaks ties that cannot be done by head-to-head or "best win").
- Conference champs are in bold. Conference champs who would not be seeded as conference champs if the playoffs began today are in bold italics.
Catawba Shores/Metro 8/South Piedmont champ: CSD
Mid-State/Mid Piedmont/NW Piedmont champ: Bishop McGuinness
*Northwestern/Mountain/Western FH/Mountain FH 1-seed: St. Stephens
*Southern Carolina/Rocky River 1-seed: Parkwood
*-Split conference with 4A schools — 1-seeds must have an overall win percentage of .500 or better OR finish in the top three in the conference standings to be seeded with the 1-seeds, or else be seeded with the 2s and wild-cards.
Last five in, first five out
None -- the 3A/2A/1A classification has 20-team brackets and there are only 19 teams in the West. All 19 will make the playoffs.
