Words you’ll hear
Seed
A team’s ranking going into a tournament bracket. #1 is best. Higher seeds usually host and play lower-ranked teams first.
Bracket
The chart of who plays whom. Winners move on to the next game; in districts, many losers get a second chance.
Last-chance game
A district game between two teams that already lost once. Win and you go to State; lose and the season is over.
League
The regular season against nearby schools (Northwest 2B/1B League). It decides rankings for districts.
District tournament
A separate tournament after the league season, with teams from several leagues. It’s how teams qualify for State: the top 6 go.
State tournament
The statewide tournament for the smallest schools (called “2B/1B”). Single elimination: lose and you’re out.
2B/1B
Washington groups schools by size. 1B and 2B are the two smallest classes; for soccer they play together.
W-L-D
Wins, losses, draws. A draw (same score at full time) is common in soccer; in the regular season it’s worth 1 point. District and State games can’t end in a draw: they go to extra time and penalty kicks.
