Alliance wins as expected. Carrollton has a no sweat. And a real nice win for the Quakers over their rival. I heard some rumors going around about some words being said by the players but don’t want to spread any false information as I was not at the game. Anybody got any truth as to what went down? I was told there were some derogatory words said by WB but those are pretty vulgar accusations and I don’t want to put any words in anyone’s mouth.

The tournament drawings are Sunday. I believe they begin at 2 p.m. In NEO, there are 2 district tournaments, both with 12 teams, at Cene Park and at Louisville. All first-round games are Monday, May 13; sectional finals are Wednesday, May 15. The district dates are Monday, May 20 (2 and 5 p.m.) and Wednesday, May 22 (5 p.m.). These two district champions will play in the regional semifinal at Thurmon Munson Stadium at 2 p.m. on Thursday, May 30. The regional final is Friday, May 31 at 5 p.m.
Seed voting is posted:
1, Poland; 2, Alliance; 3, West Branch; 4, Canfield; 5, Field; 6, Marlington; 7, Hubbard; 8, Madison. Salem is No. 15.

The East District voting hasn't been posted but Carrollton should be among the top 4.
 
Some non-league games upcoming, but here's the tournament schedule (note: it's a TOURNAMENT, not a playoff. A playoff is a "best of" series, a tournament is a "lose and you're done" format. Just my pet peeve of the day LOL):

Monday, May 13
Louisville Bracket
Kent Roosevelt at Salem (winner at Field on Weds.)

Tuesday, May 14
East 2 District
Minerva at Carrollton

Wednesday, May 15
Cene Park District
Ashtabula Edgewood-Ravenna winner at Alliance
Louisville District
Geneva-Yo. East winner at Marlington
Jefferson Area-West Geauga winner at West Branch

Interesting that No. 2 seed Alliance jumped into the same half-bracket with No. 1 Poland.
And No. 4 Canfield went to the lower half of the same bracket.
