They played a ton of common opponents with really similar results (except for the second Langley/Yorktown game and the Langley lopsided win over Chantilly):

Robinson

Madison 9-8 OT, Langley 9-8 2OT

West Potomac

Madison 10-7, Langley 8-7

Westfield

Madison 14-1, Madison 15-4, Langley 12-3

McLean

Madison 12-5, Langley 13-7

Centreville

Madison 11-6, Langley 18-1

W-L

Madison 11-5, Langley 11-6, Langley 16-5

Yorktown

Madison 13-5, Langley 12-5, Langley 10-11 OT

Chantilly

Madison 10-9 OT, Langley 13-6

Madison has to be the favorite just based on history. Langley needs to win 70+% of the faceoffs (they should), avoid sloppy turnovers, and finish possessions with quality shots that are on target. They are good enough to win but need to play a clean game to have a chance.

A
Cosby vs Deep Run
B
Battlefield vs Forest Park
Freedom South Riding vs Colgan
C
Robinson vs Woodson
West Potomac vs Alexandria City
D
Oakton vs Yorktown
Madison vs Langley


Forest Park will upset Battlefield. Heard it hear first. Eastern Prince William ain't no joke!

Good call. I mean FP lost to Gainesville 15-2 and Battlefield beat Gainesville 12-3, but FP probably just had a bad night and will likely dominate Battlefield.

Region B is terrible this year except for one team.

The state bracket should be rearranged

It's not going to happen, but it would be nice to see each region get one team and then four at large bids.

I would have all four Region D semifinalists, Robinson, West Potomac, Battlefield, and Cosby.

this year it is an easy call that those are the 8 teams that should be in. But in a year where it is not so clear, who would decide the at large bids?

They used to use a power points system. Some sports and regions still use it. Downside is that it discourages you from scheduling tough non-conference games because taking losses really hurts. I think they should just poll the DCUM board and ask them who is best.

Could really use the TOP 10 Rankings this week.

I don't usually do it once we get to regionals and teams start getting knocked out. This is how I see it based on current strength. I know Langley beat Robinson but I think Robinson is a bit stronger than Langley right now. I know Yorktown beat Langley but I think Langley wins that matchup most of the time. I know Oakton beat Yorktown but I think Yorktown has improved more and is stronger than Oakton right now.

1. Madison
2. Robinson
3. Langley
4. Cosby
5. Battlefield
6. West Potomac
7. Yorktown
8. Oakton
9. Chantilly
10. McLean

Langley v Madison is too close to go stat for stat. I think it’s who will be able to rise in a huge elimination game between arguably the 1 & 2 in the whole state. Madisons history in big games has to give them the edge, but with that being said Langley has been putting out some great performances against the top teams in the state. My only knock on the Saxons is the game against Stone Bridge (They were missing some key players I know) and the District championship against Yorktown. If they come out like they did in those 2 games than it will be a long night for them. 15-12 Madison.

Anyone know if the Oakton - YT game is going to be on NFHS tonight? Neither the boys Oakton-YT or the girls Oakton-YT game (prior game tonight) are scheduled on NFHS at the moment. This also happened for the YT-Mclean game in districts where it didn't broadcast on NFHS. Is it the AD's job to schedule or someone else's?

What’s the scouting on Cosby? I have a gut feeling they could be better than what folks give them credit for.

Think YT has their own YouTube channel. and the world’s most annoying/homer announcer doing unnecessary play-by-play..

They got rid of the YouTube channel this season and used NFHS. Maybe they forgot to continue for the playoffs or are trying to hide game film.

Langley vs Madison - Haven’t met since a preseason scrimmage. Finished the regular season as the DCUM and MadLax #1 and #2 public teams. Madison has knocked Langley out of regionals two of the last three years. Edge to Madison as they seem to win bigger games.



Looks like a Saxon - Warhawk Doubleheader in Vienna on Tuesday with both girls and boys squaring off in what should be two great games.

Someone better tell the Vienna Inn that the Saxons are coming to pillage their town so lock the doors.



Seriously, best post I’ve seen in a while. It left me grinning.



Saxon fans would not dare step into the Vienna Inn



Early reports are that the Inn plans to turn away anyone wearing Forrest Green tonight

- guess no chili dogs for Saxon fans
