First Round Key Match Ups
- #1 St Mikes VS #12 Mother Teresa – It won’t be a write off first round match up for the #1 seed, as the Blue Raiders go up against a gritty, well-coached Mother Teresa squad.
- #9 Cardinal Newman VS #10 Notre Dame – Battle-tested Cardinal Newman will face off against a Notre Dame team that has yet to face out of region competition. ND has proven to compete at the highest of levels, however the 2013 bronze medalists in Newman have experience in their favour.
- #7 Pine Ridge VS #13 Cameron Heights – Pine Ridge has built a strong team resume of the course of the year with quality victories under their belt. They have also added more fire power in Nevell Provo and Spencer Thomas – 2 additions that have come over from Athlete Institute in the second semester, adding much needed depth. Could these roster changes disrupt chemistry? Time will tell. Cameron Heights is a worthy opponent with quality talent, engined by lead guard Nikola Farkic.
- #2 Henry Carr VS #10 St Mary’s – This will be an early test for #2 FHC, as St Mary’s is thinking upset. Expect a fast-paced game as both teams will look to put pressure on the ball. Marcus Bonnick, who has been carrying the Crusaders with his shooting stroke will go up against a rising 2015 prospect in his own right, Tesloth Simon.
