After 8 weeks here are the standings.
1. Helena High 8-0
(Plays at Butte 4-4 and at Capital 7-1)
Assured a playoff spot... and a first round home game.
If they win out, will be at home for the playoffs.
Has wins over Glacier 7-1 and West 7-1, and play Capital 7-1 on the last weekend of the regular season. Only a loss to Capital could keep them from being the #1 seed.
2. Billings West 7-1
(Lost to Helena High by 7)
(Plays at Big Sky 4-4 and home vs. Skyview 1-7)
Assured a playoff spot... and a first round home game, and because they beat beat 5-3 Senior.
Have the easiest two final games of the top four, 4-4 Big Sky and 1-7 Skyview.
Will be a top two seed if they win thier last two games. Only Helena could be a higher seed if West finishes in a 9-1 tie, because Helena beat Beat West by 7.
3. Helena Capital 7-1
(Lost to West by 14)
(Plays home vs. Glacier 7-1 and home vs. Helena 7-1)
Assured a playoff spot... and a first round home game, and because they beat 5-3 Senior.
Will be a top two seed if they win thier last two games. Only West could be a higher seed if Capital finishes 9-1, because West beat Capital by 14.
4. Kalispell Glacier 7-1
(Lost to Helena High by 7)
(Plays at Capital 7-1 and home vs. Big Sky 4-4)
Assured a playoff spot, a Glacier win or a Senior loss, puts Glacier at home for the first weekend of the playoffs.
Will most likely be a top two seed if they win thier last two games. Only Helena (or West, they did not play Glacier) could be a higher seed if Glacier finishes in a 9-1 tie, because Helena beat Beat Glacier by 7.
5. Billings Senior 5-3
(Lost to Billings West, Capital and Butte)
(Plays at Great Falls 3-5 and home vs. Bozeman 2-6)
Is in the playoffs with one more win.
Could miss the playoffs if they lose last two games
6. Butte High 4-4
(Lost to CMR, West, Bozeman and Capital)
(Plays home vs. Helena and home vs. Sentinel)
Win thier last 2 and they are in the playoffs.
Holds tie breakers over Senior with a 21-12 win and Bigsky with a 40-0 win. Other wins were Skyview 1-7 and Hellgate 1-7.
7. Missoula Big Sky 4-4
(Lost to Butte, Capital, CMR and Flathead)
(Plays home vs. West 7-1 and at Glacier 7-1)
Win thier last 2 and they are in the playoffs, however that is VERY doubtful as they play Glacier and West.
Would lose tie breakers to Flathead and CMR because they lost to both. Will not play the other 3-5 team Great Falls this year.
CMR, Flathead and Butte all hold tie breaker wins over Big Sky.
8. Great Falls CMR 3-5
(Lost to Glacier, Capital, Helena, Senior and West)
(Plays at Flathead 3-5 and at Great Falls 3-5)

9. Kalispell Flathead 3-5
(Lost to Capital, Glacier, Helena, Bozeman and Senior)
(Plays home vs. CMR 3-5 and at Hellgate 1-7)
Controls their own destiny... win thier last two and they are in... a loss and they are out.
10. Great Falls High 3-5

11. Bozeman High 2-6
(Lost to Sentinel, Great Falls, West, Glacier Skyview and Big Sky)
