[quote=Anonymous]Neutral Observers DMV Rankings for the week of 4/28:

1. Landon (14-2): The Bears are winners of 12 straight and have locked up the #1 seed heading into the IAC playoffs. This Landon team is very deep and can beat you offensively with a lot of different weapons. On top of that, they have a very underrated goalie and are good at the face-off circle.

2. Gonzaga (11-5): Despite the setback to Landon last week, the Eagles have the horses and offensive talent to remain as the favorite to take home the WCAC title in May.

3. Bullis (12-3): Bulldogs have enough talent on their roster to compete with anyone on this list, depth will be an issue as the weather heats up.   Showdown on Tuesday with rival Georgetown Prep to lock in the #2 seed for the IAC playoffs and a first-round bye.

4. GP (9-4): The Lil Hoyas are destined to seek revenge against rival Landon. Will Bullis stand in their way? Hoyas have a talented 2024 class. 
 
5. SJC (8-4): The Cadets and the Purple Eagles are set to clash in a major WCAC showdown this Friday. The winner will lock up the #1 seed for the WCAC playoffs. Don't sleep on DeMatha on Tuesday though...

6. GC (13-3): Dane Smith has turned the Falcons program around in two years. Great win over PVI last week. Can the Falcons play spoiler in the WCAC playoffs next week?

7. DeMatha (7-6): Despite their record, and mid-season drama, the Stags have weathered the storm. DeMatha has the firepower on offense however their mental mistakes and clearing woes need to be cleaned up if they want to make a serious post-season run. The Cadets are on-deck.

8. PVI (11-4): After a hot start under new head coach, the Panthers have dropped two straight. Can the Panthers act as a spolier in the WCAC playoffs?

9. Episcopal (7-7): Another team, despite their record appears to be improving each passing week. Episcopal is young this year. Expect HC Conklin will have them ready to make another run in the VISAA playoffs.

10. Saint James School (9-4): The small boarding school from Hagerstown Maryland is the favorite to win the MAC.

[b]A few observations[/b]

The bottom half of the IAC is very down this year. IAC playoffs is a 3 horse race between Landon, Bullis and Prep with the Bears as the clear favorite.

The WCAC playoffs will be fun to follow next week. With the emergence of Good Counsel and now DeMatha who is playing like a different team than in March, don't be surprised if there is an upset or two in the quarterfinal round. Gonzaga remains the favorite with their deep senior class. I predict the Eagles will have a statement win on Friday vs the Cadets.

Bring on the 80-degree temps this week!
