REGION 1

On the boys side, Monroe, which forfeited games due to the season-long use of an academically ineligible player, would have been the top-seed but due to the infraction, its season is over. Therefore, Region 1 will only place three boys seeds in the tournament and the GHSA will appoint a team for the No. 4 seed.
