I was not trying to be sarcastic, just a genuine question. At the Park Hill, MO HS duals for example they have a "elite" pool and a "varsity" pool. They put all the best teams in a elite pool and they beat the hell out of each other. Then the teams that might not be as strong are equally matched in a pool as well. There is not cross bracketing out of the pools.

If that is the case here that is great. If these are supposed to be two even pools to a semi-final and final out of the pools, somebody got hosed.
