The playoffs are set to go for next week in the D10 league, after Thursday's final day of regular season action.It was a pretty good day for me in the picks department, going 4-0 to bring my D10 record back to right around 80% for the season (42-11). Bishop Mac (off by 1) and JF Ross (correct margin) were my best selections on the day.
We'll start with the Celtics, who locked down 2nd place in the standings with a hard-fought 41-36 road win at Lourdes. Jessica Morris paced BMAC with a 13-point effort, while Monica Trimble had a game-high 16 and Charlotte Case 13 more for the Crusaders. Lourdes will finish in 3rd place in the standings.
The JF Ross Royals locked down the #6 seed by defeating the Centre Wellington Falcons (who finish 7th), 37-26. Teddi Taran had 18 points for the winners, with Candice Geisel adding 8. Maddie Fennell and Kristen Gora each had 10 for CW.
The other games went as expected as Guelph CVI downed Orangeville 53-17, and St. James locked up first place by taking out Centennial 44-27.
For GCVI, Sydney Wilson had a D10 Thursday high of 27 points, while Ijeoma Staunton added 10. Jessica Gut led the Bears with 7.
Chelsey Gazzola (11) and Nastassja Herriot (7) paced a balanced St. James attack in their win. Emma Korol was tops for the Spartans with 10.
