Rounding the final turn in the playoff race
October 13th, 2012 by nathan joyceTwo weeks left in the football regular season. The playoff
picture is starting to develop. Let’s take a look:
In the Narrows League, Bellarmine would clinch at least a share of
the league title and the top spot to the Class 4A
state preliminary round by beating Olympia next weekend.
Central Kitsap plays a non-league and awaits South Kitsap in the
Week 9 finale. That’s where things get interesting. If CK beats SK,
it takes the No. 2 spot and home playoff game. A loss, and we could
be looking at a three-way tie for second with Olympia (all three
would get playoff spots, but tiebreakers would determine
seeding).
In the Metro League, Seattle Prep’s win against Blanchet eliminated
Bainbridge Saturday from the playoffs.
In the Olympic League, Bremerton was the first to wrap up a playoff
spot (it’s first since 1993) and will clinch at least
a share of the league title and the top seed into the Class 2A
West Central District tournament with a win next week against
Olympic. North Kitsap will clinch a playoff spot with a win against
Kingston (and they’ll clinch the second seed and a home playoff
game if Bremerton beats Olympic).
That leaves two more spots. Kingston and Olympic are sitting in
those spots now with Klahowya and North Mason a game behind (those
two teams play next Saturday).
In the Nisqually League, if I’m reading the district website correctly, three teams get a spot in
the Tri-District playoffs. Port Townsend and Chimacum are two games
behind the league’s vanguard and will need some help these last two
weeks.
