Here are our final rankings for the 2014-2015 WPIAL boys basketball season. As in the past at the end of the regular season, we rank all of the playoff teams, not just the top ten. We also don’t rank, we seed them like the WPIAL does. It is not a true ranking since the steering committee tries to avoid Preliminary and First Round matchups of teams in the same section, so sometimes lower teams are shuffled about to avoid section rivals meeting early on in the brackets.  Here is our version of the February Frenzy and the Seeding Shuffle for all 73 of the WPIAL boys basketball playoff field.

Tune in Tuesday night at 7:00pm on MSAsports.net for the announcement and analysis of the actual brackets during the 2015 WPIAL Basketball Playoff Pairings Show.
