The coaches do a good job keeping it updated. Brooks and Groton are the only two teams that aren't posting their stats. I wish they'd post GB and CT numbers to add some insight on which players are affecting the middle and defensive end of the field, but it might be a lot to ask high school managers to track those numbers.

The stats look odd this week after Rivers cancelled due to COVID.

Any word yet on Covid make up games ?

Thayer-St Mark's was cancelled yesterday. No update on status of Rivers-BH

[Laxxal22]

A Rivers dad told me he was 99% sure their games wouldn't be made up. Idk if the Thayer-St. Mark's cancellation was Covid related, but I doubt that gets made up either. I think we're on to playoffs, I just hope Covid doesn't wreck the whole thing. My best guess on seeding with the assumption that it's based on winning percentage since not everyone played 11 league games.

1. Belmont Hill (11-0)
2. Tabor (10-1)
3. Nobles (9-2)
4. St. Seb's (8-3)
5. Rivers (6-3)
6. Lawrence (7-4)
7 & 8. Thayer & St. George's (6-4) - I don't know tie-breakers but St. G's won the head-to-head match up.

I assume we'll find out today.

St. George's played Moses Brown School from Providence instead. I still haven't heard anything about playoffs.

When does the schedule come out? Doesn’t it start Wed?

Starting to cut it close. Interestingly enough, earlier in the day yesterday the Seb's website had Rivers listed as their next opponent but later it flipped to TBD. I imagine the late season cancelations, and how to account those results in final rankings, maybe have caused some unforeseen drama on how to seed.

[Laxboy78]

Govs has BH listed now on their website at 3:15pm tomorrow. Must have got the 8 seed.

Nobles vs St G.

Sebs vs Lawrence

Govs in. Rivers out.
Govs @ BH
Thayer @ Tabor
St. George's @ Nobles
Lawrence @ Seb's

Somehow the top two seeds end up with the two tougher first round games.

[Laxboy78]

That would leave Tabor vs Rivers, but schools have not posted it yet.

What about Thayer?

[Laxboy78]

Thanks! You always got the good info!

[Laxboy78]

Semi’s will be crazy good games! Tough league when Govs is an 8 seed!

[Floyd]

I thought I'd heard BH was hosting semis regardless of who makes it, but that may not be the case. Apparently there's a clause in the playoff rules stating any school hosting an alumni weekend event on that day is entitled to a home game, should they be playing. As it turns out the school whose team is coached by the architect of the playoffs scheduled their alumni day for 5/20. Subplots abound!

Rivers in the 2nd tier of the playoffs??

[Family]

Rivers is out of the tourney for COVID reasons, I believe.
