2014	OPEN	DIVISION I	DIVISION II	DIVISION III	DIVISION IV	DIVISION V

The format remained the same with five enrollment-based divisions and an open division. The top eight teams, as determined by a selection committee, are entered the open division (No more than four teams can be from the same league and no more than three from the same enrollment division). All eight teams are assured of at least two games as consolation brackets will determine most final positions. Irregardless of their finish in the section playoffs, all eight teams qualify for the Northern California tournament. The eight schools in the Open Division this year are Sacred Heart Cathedral, St. Ignatius, Mitty, Pinewood, Presentation, Scotts Valley, Eastside College Prep and Wilcox, seeded in that order. After these eight teams were determined, the other 72 qualifying teams were divided into five enrollment-based divisions. Teams seeded 5 through 8 received byes into the second round and seeds 1-4 received byes into the quarterfinals. Divisions I, II and III had 16 teams, Division IV had 17 teams and V had 17 teams. Gunn was seeded No. 1 in Division I, St. Francis in Division II, Valley Christian in Division III, Notre Dame-Belmont in Division IV and St. Francis CCC in Division V.
