P408: The Stage Is Set
The P408 playoffs are set. In the AC, the race for the #1 seed couldn't have been any closer: Huntley and Excelsior finished with identical 115-47 records and were 3-3 in head-to-head matchups. Whatever the third tiebreaker was went the way of the Red Raiders, though, so Huntley will host the winner of the New Image Blaze/Boston Idiots Wild Card matchup, while Excelsior faces the Charity Island Walleye in the #2/#3 face-off.
Interesting note about those Idiots: They won their last 5, while the California Alliance lost their last 4, to just squeeze into the second Wild Card spot and the right to visit the Blaze. Can they keep that momentum going and pull off a shocking upset?
In the NC, Singapore took the top spot, as they do, relegating Collingwood to the Wild Card game, where they will host the Phoenix Firebirds. The #2/#3 matchup will feature the Barut Patriots and the Austin Fellwalkers; neither team has won a championship at any level, but one will be the NC Sub-League Series, very likely against the legendary Sluggers or Magpies.
Final standings follow...good luck to all P408 playoff participants!
