[goat]

hey gandi i just sent you a im , but this is what i think

"A" lafayette or vandy

"B"this is a tough one niceville did well last year in a lower bracket and i don't know anything about the team fro az. cath. br played acadiana tough in the playoffs last year but you know who i picking here
ACADIANA

"C" another tough one because i don't know anything about the CA team but i think Rummel wins this one

"D" Shreve get tested again but i think jesuit is the best in this bracket.
so look for lafayette or vandy, acadiana, rummel, and jesuit to be in the semis. wow wasn't that the semis in last years playoffs.

[spectator]

It is difficult in some of the brackets not knowing the out of state teams. That said,I agree with Goat's prediction.
I am disappointed that the time of the Catholic BR v Acadiana was changed. I was looking forward to seeing this game when both teams were "fresh". Now the game will be played after both teams have finished a game, and Catholic High having little break from their previous game.

[goat]

yea i agree spectator. the game these two played last year in the playoffs was one of the best i saw all of last year. i hope this one is as good.

[4TheLoveOfTheGame]

What about the other divisions. How bout the Blue and White divisions. I know the top teams are in the orange but who should show well in the Blue division and the White division?

[utilityplayer05]

Alright well for orange division here goes...
1. Vandy- Vandy is fielding one of the best teams that i have seen in awhile. Lafayette has also struggled a little so i think vandy will upset them and win this division.
2. Catholic or Acadiana- If catholic can figure out how to score a goal, they will take the division. Though, if Acadiana continues to play as well as they have, then they could win it all.
3. Rummel or the team from Cal- Probably rummel in this one because they always come to play and play well at that, but i doubt a team from cal will come if they are terrible so we will have to see.
4. Jesuit- enough said.

[McScruff]

Where's Brother Martin? They aren't going to defend their title?

[m]

Brother Martin's not playing in the showcase this year. They played in the Gulfport Showcase and are playing in the Baton Rouge tournament instead. For what reason I don't know.

[Ghandi]

When Thursday's games are done, could someone post the out-of-state scores?

[manutdman123]

Brother Martin has exams monday and tuesday after the tourny and school administration would not let them go. Thats why they are in the Baton Rouge tourny.

Hey, thanks for very quick report. It's good to know.

Y'all, if you can report summaries of the games you are reporting, it would be great.

Thanks in advance.
