Back in Action

A few big games this week in area leagues:

District 8

The D8 has completed the first cycle through its usual "home and away" schedule, so we're back to the beginning again. That means a Wednesday (3:30pm) tilt between St. David and St. Mary's, this time over at Mary's.

St. Mary's won the last matchup by 10, and with David's having lost to Doyle this is basically a must-win for the Celtics if they are hoping to have a home-court playoff game.

Also on Wednesday, an important game will be played between Monsignor Doyle and St. Benedict, with the winner having the inside track (most likely) at a playoff berth.

WCSSAA - Senior

JR over at wcssaasports.com already touched on these a bit, but we have a few key games this week including the battle of the unbeaten between WCI & Bluevale. Records can be deceiving, however, and although the Vikes are currently tied for first I think the Knights have the edge here.

Also on Tuesday, GRCI will travel to SJAM in another 3:30pm tilt. At least those were the originally scheduled times in December, not sure if WCSSAA will switch to the traditional "Tuesday = late senior game" schedule.

***Update: thanks to a reader who has confirmed that Senior games will be going "late" at 5pm tomorrow***

Thursday has more 3:30pm action, with Forest Hts. travelling to KCI and another key game between two top-eight programs (GRCI @ SSS)

WCSSAA - Junior

SJAM and Grand River will complete a nice double-header in Waterloo; two solid clubs that are battling for those 2 CWOSSA "AAAA" berths.

Meanwhile, on Thursday the upstart Huron Heights Huskies will put their unbeaten record on the line against the Cameron Heights Gaels.

D10 - Senior

The only match-up between two top-four clubs goes Tuesday between 3rd place Ross and 2nd place St. James (4:00pm @ Ross).

D10 - Junior

3rd place St. James has a tough week ahead ---- they play 4th place Ross today at Ross and then travel across town to battle the 2nd-place Lourdes Crusaders on Thursday.
