In The Land Of Steady Habits ...
This situation is hard to understand, and even harder to explain. A few years ago we had a state tournament playoff system where a team's seeding, and the division that it was seeded in, was determined by a team's record against larger schools, and smaller schools, the records of these schools, and wins, and losses, against these different size schools, and different "talent" schools, were treated differently in making the post season division assignment, and seeding. Well one coach decided that his team, which was quite good, would have a better chance winning the state tournament if he played in a "lower" division than the one his team would end up in if his team won most of it's final three, or four games, so he decided to start his reserves, and sit his starters, to "rest" his best players for the upcoming state tournament. Of course he ended up losing a few of these games, and ended up as a top seed in an "easier" division. It was difficult to prove his intentions, but the crap still hit the fan, and we no longer use that system for the state tournament.
