6. Marion Center

13. Southern Huntingdon
14. Laurel Valley
15. Blairsville
16. Saltsburg

Unoffiicial but I beleive accurate. I do not see Laurel Valley, Blairsville or Saltsburg entering the playoffs. Homer Center may be a question mark since they just got romped by Penns Manor at home and would have them on the road.

the bottom few teams aren't eligible. a team must have four wins to qualify for the playoffs.

The final, official standings are on the District 6 web site. But something is odd. Bishop Guilfoyle is listed as making the playoffs. But they only have a record of 3 - 6. How did they get around the 4-win minimum rule?

Also, Southern Huntingdon, who is 4 - 5, is listed as not making the playoffs. But that could have been a local school district policy. Many school districts have a 0.500 or better rule before they will allow a team to go the playoffs, regardless of whether or not the PIAA district will allow them to enter.

But, what about Bishop Guilfoyle. How did they get it with only 3 wins?

I remembered reading in the Athletic director minutes on the D6 site that BG asked for .500 change because of a tougher schedule. I don't know anything about a 4 win rule though.

"Bellwood-Antis questioned the 500-rule change for A. Mr. Wotkowski said Bishop Guilfoyle requested this due to their tough schedule. Rule was changed last year Mr. Wotkowski believes."

Edit: the Altoona Mirror said that Southern Huntingdon declined the bid so BG moved up to the 13th seed
