  1. section 1

    Harrison vs. North Salem game was cancelled

  2. Ramsupsetvikings

    If my sources are correct joe then both James Devine and John Beuchli are out for the vikings with injurys. All the Rams need to do is keep Riley at bay and take enough shots on South's amazing goalie Luke Haggerty which will be tough to do but its only 2 people. If Decco is able to penetrate souths crease it might be a game joe. What are your thoughts Joe?

  3. Joe Lombardi

    Ramsupset…
    I did pick a much closer game than what happened last year on the Previews and picks thread, but a few folks seemed to disagree.
    We'll see.
    Meanwhile, Harold had an interesting story on North's improvement today in The Journal News and on LoHud.com. Here's the link.
    BTW – I'm sticking by my pick of South 11, North 6.
    Thoughts?

  4. section 1

    joe, what happens if the is a tie of records in league play.

  5. Joe Lombardi

    section 1 – I believe the first tiebreaker is combined record of opponents, followed by head-to-head. If that's not right and anyone knows for sure, please let us know.

    Here are some scores from today:

    Haldane 7, Ardsley 6

    Briarcliff 10, Bronxville 7

    CHSAA playoffs

    Semifinals
    Iona Prep 17, St. Francis Prep 7
    Fordham Prep 10, Monsignor Farrell 4

    Consolation bracket
    Stepinac 14, St. Joseph’s by the Sea 4

  6. Freedom Writer

    Joe how about North Salem vs. Hastings?

  7. Lax

    Joe what is the highest seed briarcliff could get in sectionals

  8. Joe Lombardi

    FW –
    I like North Salem. Let's say 10-6.

    As far as Briarcliff goes, there is only one Class C team in the power league that would get an automatic higher seed and that's Rye. The other C teams in the A Division can qualify for sectionals by winning a smaller percentage of games, but there is no seeding advantage.

  9. lacrosse123

    For the Class C sectionals, would it be fair to predict the following top 5 seedings?

    1. Rye
    2. Byram Hills
    3. Putnam Valley
    4. Pleasantville/Briarcliff
    5. Pleasantville/Briarcliff

    The 4 and 5 seed depend on which team wins the game they play against each other.

  10. ....

    Briarcliff is getting a 2 seed.

  11. lacrosse123

    Why? They haven't played nearly as tough a schedule as Put Valley or Byram. Granted, they beat PVille today so they should get the 4 seed, but not above Byram or Put Valley.

  12. Class C

    I agree lacrosse123, PV and byram have tougher schedueles, and did not need overtime to beat pleasantville.

About the author
Joe Lombardi Joe Lombardi did not become familiar with lacrosse until after graduating from both Irvington High School and the University of Dayton Ñ neither of which offered the sport. But it didn't take him long to take a liking to lacrosse since it combines elements of several of his favorite sports: basketball, hockey and football. In addition to serving as local sports editor of The Journal News and LoHud.com, he also writes the weekly "Catching up with...":http://lohud.com/catchingup feature that appears on Tuesdays. Joe can also be seen each Monday during the school year on RNN's "NewsCenter Now," providing a look at the week ahead in local sports, as well as on "Varsity Central Extra," which appears on Thursdays at 6:30 p.m.
