Well well Farmingdale upsets Hills 11-6 in the LIC which could make the A tournament more wide open.

Vestal had a pretty empty schedule. Shouldn't be close.

Both teams beat Liverpool (WG 2X), who just won Class A over B'ville (7-5). I would not be surprised to see Vestal give them a game.

Has Shenendehowa ever played in a state final? They're always there but I'm not sure if they've ever gotten past Long Island. My gut is no on that. This could be their year.

Shen has never been to a State Final. I believe they lost a Semi to the great Farmingdale team with Danowski, Panarelli, et. al. Dalers were upset by WG 11-10 in the Final for their only loss of that year.

to get tothe A final they will have to beat Mamaroneck (1) and likely Farmingdale (8). Both games are in the Albany area, however so travel won't be an issue.

Not sensing a Monroe-Woodbury upset, eh?

Usually you guys make predictions. Is the crystal ball cloudy this year? :)

Who is favored in A, B and C….I assume Marcellus is the favorite in D

They also lost to Northport in '02 in the semis when we suffered the same fate against West Genny.

A is wide open but I guess I would favor Farmingdale at this point.

B is the best bracket. I'm going with South Side but you can't really count out Victor or for that matter Yorktown or Nisky even when they're having down years...and I mean did I forget about West Genny?

C JD cruises to final to meet Rye/BBP...I'm going JD there but finals should be a good game.

D is Marcellus vs CSH/Pleasantville. Marcellus seems like a slight favorite.

Yeah, just going by results it doesn’t seem like there’s one dominant squad…maybe States will clarify that. I like what I’ve seen from South Side, but as you point out there’s a lot of competition in B

My usual is calling for an Upstate sweep!

So far, including the LP days, I'm 0-fer.

BBP handling Wantagh twice is arguably the most impressive thing I've seen this season. To be fair Southside's season would be 1a to me

That F'Dale team had eleven seniors committed to D-1 schools. Not sure if WG had any. Perhaps those famous WG haircuts made the difference?

The announcers wouldn't stop whining about the lack of a shot clock but I thought BBP's poise in the final 5 minutes playing keep away in the restraining box was quite impressive.
