So is Springboro the team to beat?

[TimtheEnchanter]

Springboro looks tough at 25-4-3, but their strength of schedule could be called into question ( 4.6 see http://www.ushsho.com/ohrank.htm). They did beat Jerome, but other than that its Toeldo Central Catholic and Orange as their notable wins. They under performed at the Dayton Mayor's Cup and at the Frozen Creek (lost championship in SO).
Centerville has a history of playing well in tournament games. The have played a tougher schedule (5.6) to prepare them for this time of year. However, I can't find a notable win on their schedule. They should be pissed coming off 2-2 tie with X, barely getting by Sycamore and St Charles and the SOL to Bowling Green. Bottle up their captain and trap the rest.
Talawanda - Can't count the Braves out. Schedule was tough (5.1), but the seem to get hammered by the good teams (Moeller, Jerome, Coffman, St John's etc.). They have one some close ones against decent teams (Orange, Cville, UA). If they stay out of the box, then they stand a good chance. That said, here is another team to stay on top of the Captain - keep him tied up and they are definitely beatable.
Predictions:
Cville 6 v.s Sycamore 2 - the Aves are grounded this year
St X 4 vs. Troy 3 - X just beat'em 5-2, this one could go either way, especially at Hobart with tight neutral zone
Springboro 10 vs. Alter 0 - No chance for the Knights
Talawanda 5 vs Creek 2 - played in the friendly confines of Goggin (how'd the Braves get that one change??; DRM - Creek has just lost too much this year)

Cville 5 vs St X 2 - Elks team speed and the short Neutral zone at Hobart - too much for X
Springboro 4 vs Talawanda 1 - Braves get scalped outside the friendly confines of Goggin, Panthers fly through neutral zone at Hobart

Springboro 3 vs Cville 2 - another tight one, but Boro comes out on top

So yeah, Boro is the team to beat.

Centerville 5 Sycamore 2
Talawanda 5 Beavercreek 3
Springboro 11 Alter 2

Blue Jackets Cup
Olentangy Liberty 3 Olentangy Orange 0
Upper Arlington 5 Moeller 2 - WOW!!
Dublin Coffman 10 St Charles 3
Dublin Jerome 6 Olentangy Braves 2

[hawkman]

So it looks like we have,
Talawanda vs. Centerville 12:30 @ Hobart
Springboro vs. St. X/Troy Winner 2:45 @ Hobart

Talawanda beat centerville earlier this year 4-2 in dayton, but centerville was also missing bucher, so i think that will be an interesting matchup, both teams have pretty similar makeups, but real different styles.

Then you have springboro, who beat X twice, and lost to Troy, do they have Hume back? i know he missed the talawanda game a week ago. But i think springboros speed really gives them an advantage over everyone, but maybe hobarts small rink will slow them down.

Also!!! District brackets came out, looks like some pretty good matchups.

My sense is that the state semifinal game is going to be a real uphill battle against some really good Cleveland or Toledo team for whomever wins the Columbus regional.

[ToledoSJ]

SJJ Titans knocked off Sylvania Northview tonight! St Johns vs. St Francis to go to the final 4.... should be a good one.

[FormerWildcat]

It comes down to Olentangy Liberty vs Dublin Jerome in the Columbus regional, as expected.
