Update on the Lake Erie League standings:
Warrensville Heights 12-3 (8-2) (vs. Shaker Hts. Friday) Back to back losses against Bedford and Garfield Heights. No shame in losing to either, but looks like they struggled shooting wise against the Bulldogs. Will likely be their last game before the seeding meeting on Sunday. Should be a top seed in whatever district they end up in.
Bedford 6-1 (4-1) Does not look like they have any games schedule between now and Feb. 12 (at home against Shaker Heights). They're off to a good start, and it looks like they're gonna at least get 11 games in before the postseason begins. They play against Shaker Heights twice, which will be huge as far as conference crown implications.
Shaker Heights 7-2 (4-2) They knocked St. Eds from the ranks of the unbeaten at Brush, and have a couple of huge games this week before Sunday's seeding meeting (at Warrensville Hts, vs. St. Ignatius). They're still by and large in the thick of the LEL race, despite being sidelined for a couple weeks earlier this year due to covid issues. They play Bedford twice, ISA, and Cleveland Heights to close the season.
Garfield Heights 7-3 (5-3) (vs. Shaw Friday) The Bulldogs are flying high, on a seven-game winning streak. They close with Euclid, Lorain, Bedford, and Maple Heights (four games in nine days). Can they continue to build on their momentum going into the postseason?
Lorain 6-4 (5-3) (vs. Cleveland Heights Friday) The Titans will get a high seed in their district on Sunday, by-and-large due to their strength of schedule. They have six games before postseason play (including non-conference matchups against TBA on Saturday and Cleveland Central Catholic on Tuesday).
Cleveland Heights 7-10 (3-5) (at Lorain Friday) They have a huge win against Buchtel two weeks ago, but it's been a struggle this season. They close with Shaw, Warrensville Heights, and Shaker Heights before postseason play begins.
Maple Heights 2-8 (1-6) Looked like they were supposed to play against Bedford Friday but that game got cancelled.
Shaw 6-11 (1-8) (at Garfield Heights Friday) They play against Cleveland Heights, Maple Heights, and Bedford to close the season. Unless things turn around, doesn't look like the Cardinals will be going far in the postseason.
