No chance. SSSA roster is too weak. |
|
I think Prep is the favorite to win the IAC ship after watching them come from behind to beat Landon.
They have more depth than any team in the IAC and that will make a difference next week when the weather heats up |

All quiet on military road these days.

I certainly hope so. But they struggled against the Bullis defense last week. Lots of shots were saved rather easily by the Bullis goalie because shooters were pressured by defenders. Prep won almost every faceoff vs Landon but couldn’t manage a win in regulation. This is going to be a three horse horse race. |
Eye Street is getting ready for a parade. PVI cant play in May. GC is not ready (next year). SJC will stay up all night talking how great they all are and be too tired to play. DM is just a pathetic joke this year. TH couldn’t even beat DM. |
This guy had fun at HH today |

Neutrals Top 5
1. Bullis - Bulldogs SSDMs will keep them in every contest. Despite much depth and firepower, this team is extremely athletic between the lines and on the defensive side of the field. 2. PVI - the Panthers can score goals and are very athletic. Can they get it done in May when it matters most? Big one in Olney on Friday night! 3. GP - will the Hoyas carry the momentum into the IAC playoffs after their overtime thriller over rival Landon. GP looked like a complete team on Tuesday. 4. Landon - assuming the Bears take care of business tomorrow vs SSSA expect an all out grudge match against the Lil Hoyas next week. 5. Good Counsel - these Falcons can score goals and can control the tempo of a game with their fogo. The WCAC playoff one seed will be on the line tomorrow night when the Falcons and Panthers clash in Olney. HM: in order SJC - the Cadets have individual talent but don’t play well as a team. GZ - I don’t think any opposing coach wants to play the Eagles in the WCAC playoffs, the Eagles scrap hard. STA - the Bulldogs showed some grit on Tuesday evening and nearly knocked off rival Bullis. Game was tied with under 2 mins left in the 4th. |
Guess they are soul searching. Wouldn't be surprised though if they still end up winning it, but apparently their last outing was horrendous. |

If GC holds serve at home versus PVI on Friday, I think SJC/PVI/GZ all finish in a three way tie for conference seeds 2/3/4 with a record of 7-2, which means the coaches would draw lots for the tiebreaker. Wild stuff.
If PVI manages to win I think they get the 1 seed due to head to head over GC, then GC 2, SJC 3, and GZ 4. Anything can happen in the playoffs. What a crazy season... |

Soo much parity this spring in the DMV.
between Bullis, Landon, GP, GZ, GZ, SJC and PVI, not one of these teams is light years better than the other. Based on current records, its safe to say PVI and Bullis are top dogs but their margins are very thin. each conference tournament is wide open. |
Three WCAC games on 5/1 -- PVI vs GC, SJC vs BI, and TH vs BOC. Likely winners IMO are GC in a close on, SJC, and Heights. If those results hold, then play-in games for WCAC would be SMR v BM (SMR win) and BI vs BOC (BI). And if those results hold, then match-ups would be GC (1) vs BI (8), then depending on the drawing of lots -- tbd (2) vs SMR (7), tbd (3) vs TH (6), and tbd (4) vs DM (5). At this point going fwd I would just go with the higher seeds/home teams as the favorites. |
You'd expect at least a few levels of objective tie breakers before the coaches have to do rock/paper/scissors. Goals for, against, differential. Happens all the time in club tournaments. |
You would yeah, but go ahead and post here if you can find anything related to "WCAC boys lacrosse tiebreakers" online |

High school leagues often don't use anything beyond record and head to head.
They do that so there isn't incentive for strong teams to obliterate weak ones seeking wider goal differential, etc. |
