5 Pensacola area volleyball teams qualify for FHSAA playoffs
Five Pensacola-area volleyball teams are in the FHSAA playoffs. See regional matchups, seeds and bracket analysis for each.
Five volleyball teams from the Pensacola area have secured their spots in the FHSAA playoffs, according to the most recent bracket releases on October 18. District tournaments were originally set to conclude on October 16, but local teams were granted an extra day due to Hurricane Isaias' damages. Navarre (6A), Pensacola Catholic (3A) and Jay (Rural) had already claimed their spots by winning their respective district titles, while Gulf Breeze (5A) and Booker T. Washington (4A) earned at-large bids.
No local teams qualified for the FHSAA's new Open Division, but their absence had an impact on Region 1 brackets.
Playoff action commences with regional quarterfinals on October 20 for classes 1A-3A, and October 21 for classes 4A-6A. Regional semifinals for all classes will occur on October 24, followed by regional finals for Rural and 1A-3A on October 27, and 4A-6A on October 28. All events will culminate at Polk State College and the Winter Haven Health Center, with state semifinals and finals scheduled for November 2-7.
Below are the regional brackets featuring Pensacola-area teams and some pertinent details for each classification. District champions are denoted with an asterisk (*) and will host a regional quarterfinal unless they face a higher-seeded opponent.
