The wait is over -- Bracket Set!

Although there was a unanimous response to allow spouses/family members to play in this year's tournament. The total was only 5-votes, and no one stepped forward to express a desire to play. Remaining tower personnel have either declined, or have never participated in the past. Therefore, I see no reason not to proceed with the match-ups, and set the bracket for the 2012 TowerTennis Championship! Players are placed within the bracket based on their relative order from past competitions. Either head-to-head, or performance against common opponents. The top ten players are placed in the upper-bracket, then the lower-bracket is filled before returning to complete the upper-bracket. If the bracket is set correctly, and there are no upsets -- this will permit the top 12-players to make the playoffs. This will vary based on actual results, but I wanted the underlying structure to provide a means to accomplish a showdown of the best players, while preserving the tradition of making competitive match-ups. The odd number of participants this year required 1-player to receive a BYE. Placing the BYE with "BY", provided the greatest number of competitive 1st-round match-ups.

Please note that the Playoff seeding of regional champions is different on the published bracket, then the poster at the tower.  I was unable to stop production of the poster soon enough to make the desired changes.  I'll update the poster as time permits -- Meanwhile, the published online bracket is the master reference.
