Noon- Semifinal #2 (Friday 5:30pm winner vs. Friday 7pm winner)

 

7:30- Championship Game

 

Give us your predictions and will there be any upsets you see???

 

I will start by saying that Male and Ballard will make it to the finals just like KOB, in my opinion. Unless a strong J'Town team pulls out a victory from Ballard but look for Male to win the lower bracket with only maybe Warren Central being close to them.

J'Town will not be facing Ballard unless it is in the finals. Note that the first semifinal is played between the Friday 4 PM & 8:30 winners, which is the St. Xavier/Jeffersontown vs. Doss/Caldwell County game and DeSales/Warren Central vs. Trinity/Male winners.

 

My predictions:

 

Central

J-Town

Doss

Warren Central

Male

Fairdale

Ballard

Bryan Station

My semifinal picks ... Jeffersontown, Pleasure Ridge Park, Bryan Station and Male. Warren Central could get Male, and I think their game could be the best of the tournament.

 

I'll take Jeffersontown and Male in the final, with Male winning in a squeaker.

This should be a great tournament, with some stellar teams in playing. Here are my predictions:

 

Central

J-Town

Doss

Warren Central

Male

E-Town

Ballard

Bryan Station
