CWOSSA's two representatives at "AAAA" OFSAA made some history on Wednesday evening, with both Waterloo SJAM and Kitchener St. Mary's receiving single-digit seeds for next week's championships.SJAM will be the #8 seed, and Kitchener St. Mary's the #9.
It marks the first time that both CWOSSA representatives have been single-digit seeds, and it's one of the deeper OFSAA fields in recent memory. Here's the seeding breakdown:
#1 - St. Mike's (Toronto)
#2 - Campion (Brampton)
#3 - Father Henry Carr (Toronto)
#4 - Oakwood (Toronto)
#5 - Pine Ridge (Pickering)
#6 - Eastern Commerce (Toronto)
#7 - D'Youville (Brampton)
#8 - SJAM (Waterloo)
#9 - St. Mary's (Kitchener)
#10 - Vaughan SS
#11 - MacNab (Hamilton)
#12 - Bishop Reding (Milton)
#13 - St. John Paul II (Toronto)
#14 - St. Anne (Windsor/Tecumseh)
#15 - HB Beal (London)
#16 - Holy Names (Windsor)
#17 - Innisdale (Barrie)
#18 - Glebe CI (Ottawa)
#8 SJAM will take on #14 St. Anne in the first round, while #9 St. Mary's will face #10 Vaughan. Should both CWOSSA teams win their first-round game, they could actually meet up in the second round.
While Vaughan did not play any CWOSSA teams (that I'm aware of) this season, St. Anne is no stranger to CWOSSA opposition, having played several area teams this season in tournament play. They feature 6'7" swing forward Anthony Zrvnar, who can put up points in a hurry (he had 37 in one of St. Anne's games at the St. Benedict tournament).
It's a "good and bad" match-up for SJAM, as I feel they match-up well with St. Anne's from a personnel perspective. That said, the Saints are in their own backyard and should have some solid "home-town support".

L 48-56 vs. Waterloo CI - SBCSS Invitational
