STATE PLAYOFFS - UPDATE


Over the weekend both Avon Grove and Radnor (the teams who beat Hershey are Carlisle) were able to advance to the semi-finals will they will face one another on Tuesday night (6:00pm at West Chester Hanover HS).

Penn Crest and Mt Lebanon were also able to advance to the Semi's were they will play each other on Tuesday at CV.

It should be noted that Carlisle had defeated Mt Lebanon handily earlier in the season (3/28) 11-2. With the state having such varying levels of lacrosse from east to west it would be impossible to devise a perfectly "fair" bracket, but something ought to be done to have better seeding systems. Both Hershey and Carlilse had extremely difficult opening round matchups where other teams had far easier paths to advance.

We'd love to hear your thoughts on State seeding, district seeding, and Mid-Penn Playoffs in the comments section.

  1. It is a complete Joke. Mt. Lebanon doesn't deserve bring in the semi finals. Bishop Shannon, Carlisle and Hershey players should be pissed. They should seed the bracket by where you finish in your district with fair match ups. Avon Grove and Carlisle should of been the #1 and #2 seed for winning there districts. Do it like March Madness
