Missoula Loyola won the Western B/C divisional and enters as the top seed from the west, followed by Florence, Plains-Hot Springs and Manhattan.
The Eastern B/C divisional was canceled due to rain, allowing the top four seeds from the regular season — Huntley Project, Cut Bank, Conrad-Choteau and Shepherd — to advance to state.
