It's playoff week in the D10 league, with all games leading up to Saturday's showdown at the University of Guelph, which will be an afternoon affair this time around.Here's today's quarterfinals, starting in senior:
(8) Orangeville at (1) St. James
RS: STJ 2-0 (60-9; 64-25)
Mark's Pick: St. James by 31
Usually, the 8 vs. 1 game isn't too exciting, and this one should be no exception. The Lions are too strong for the Bears, and should be able to put this one away early.
(7) CWDHS at (2) Bishop Mac
RS: BMAC 2-0 (47-19; 56-8)
Mark's Pick: Bishop Mac by 27
The Celts haven't had too much trouble with CWDHS during the regular season, so as long as they don't overlook the Falcons here today, we should see a similar result.
(6) JF Ross at (3) Lourdes
RS: OLOL 2-0 (34-27, 56-45)
Mark's Pick: Lourdes by 12
The regular-season games were fairly competitive, and I'm looking for something similar here. I think the Crusaders have the depth to get it done in the end.
(5) Centennial at (4) GCVI
RS: 1-1 (CCVI 37-32; GCVI 47-36)
Mark's Pick: GCVI by 7
Each team won on the other's home court during the regular season, but the Gaels have been playing well down the stretch so I'll tag them to reverse that trend today.
