We know who won regions last week.
Fleming Island, The Gib, Charlotte, Heritage.
But we also like to toss around ideas about the region tournament, that this district is the best, or no, that district is top-heavy but isn’t the best top-to-bottom.
And the little kid-baseball-stats-nerd-turned-wrestling-writer-stats-nerd loves these kinds of discussions.
So, which district “won” each of the four regions?
These numbers might help start the discussion. I have breakdowns of all four regions, but, with an eye toward tomorrow’s first day of the FHSAA state girls tournament, here’s first a breakdown of the state qualifiers, by numbers per district:
26: District 4.
22: District 13.
21: District 11.
18: District 7.
17: District 6.
15: District 10, District 15.
11: District 1, District 3, District 5, District 12.
10: District 8, District 14.
9: District 9, District 16.
8: District 2.
My Iowa math tells me that’s 224 state qualifiers, which should track.
There’s two ways to evaluate which district “won” each region — points and qualifiers (with medals broken down). The breakdowns by each region follow (we did Region 1 earlier, but have thrown the data back in for comparison’s sake).

It’ll be interesting to see how the districts will fare at states, starting shortly!
