will very fun to see xavier vs campion second round
and goetz vs bcss and d'y vs sandalwood

St Augustine is ranked 11th and the winner of St Joes/Pocock will be ranked 12th

St Augustine defeated Ste Famille.

St Augustine @ Brampton Centennial on March 3.

the seading is not bad, how was it set though, like how did they decide whoe 1st, 2nd etc.. ?

expectations are high for campion fletchers sandalwood and bcss.

Wheres the final going to be held?

what are your predictions on the first & second rounds ?

The finals will be hosted by the finalist with the highest seed.

The coaches vote but the first place teams must be 1-4, the second place teams must be 5-8, and the third place teams must be 9-12.

Why does Sandalwood deserve 9th seed if they are 6-4 when Carmel is 9-3?

Because Sandalwood played in a tougher division that Carmel and they are simply a better team.

I agree with Mu2. Carmel is 9-3 and defeated Loyola when it counted. Sandalwood was in a tough division, they lost to Leger when it counted as well.

Pocock is the 12th seed.

Fletchers has some really easy teams to play..

Pocock, Then Jon of Arc, then D'Y is wud be there challenge if DY makes it to there.

I See Fletchers In The Finals For Sure

And either Campion, Xavier, Goetz, or BCSS

it would be nice to see fletchers and xavier or goetz in the finals

I think
Fletchers chance at the gold is really high, but they must defeat DY before thinking about the finals, so playoffs shud be fun to watch, but in my opinion i see fletchrs with the gold

Remember Carmels record is actually 8-4. They recieved a win because of Loyola's forfeit. Loyola slapped them by 20 the first game.

Looking at the seeds, I think the most glaring problems are as follows:

Campion over Goetz: Why? Goetz has the better record and has played far more consistently than Campion. This strikes me as a ranking based more on Campion's rep in junior over the past few years, rather than this year.

Fletcher's at #5: I saw BCSS and Xavier play well in a lot of quality tournaments. I saw Fletcher's finish second in a weak division and with only one win of note: a while ago against BCSS. If record alone is the reason then why Campion over Goetz.

Xavier at #7: There is no way this is a #7 seed. If the coaches are willing to forgive Sandalwood's 4 losses in (rightfully) seeding them #9 and Campions inconsistent play then why were they unwilling to overlook a loss to Rick Hansen that only happened because most of the team was not at the game due to a coaching mistake. The fact is that, over the past month, they were the best team in their division and one of the few Peel teams to make noise in multiple tournaments.

Having said the above, I see the playoffs progressing this way:

FIRST ROUND

- 5. Fletcher's over 12. Pocock: The 11 and 12 teams are much weaker than the rest of the field.
- 6. BCSS over 11. Augustine: Their top players are simply too much for Augustine.
- 7. Xavier over 10. Carmel: Carmel suffers from Xavier's too-low seeding.
- 9. Sandalwood over 8. Gonzaga: Sandalwood may be the lower seed but they are a much stronger and much deeper team.

SECOND ROUND

- 1. D'Youville over 9. Sandalwood: Despite all the sandalwood hype, they lost both games to a more athletic D'Youville team that has played in more quality tournaments.
- 7. Xavier over 2. Campion: Maybe it's fate; the too-low seed against the too-high seed. Xavier simply has too much height and too many scoring threats.
- 3. Goetz over 6. BCSS: This will be the best game of the second round and the closest. I could just as easily see it going the other way. I'll take Goetz on the home court and with a bit of a depth advantage.
- 5. Fletcher's over 4. Joan of Arc: Fletcher's gets a gift in the second round: Joan of Arc is 4th by default but they are no better than the 11th best team in Peel.

SEMI-FINALS

- 1. D'Youville over 5. Fletcher's: The undeserved hype ends here. D'Youville has been in too many top tournaments; played too many competitive games in a tough division; and will have too many quality players for Fletcher's.
- 7. Xavier over 3. Goetz: While the teams might have split the season series, Xavier made Goetz look ordinary last week and didn't have Stefan for their close loss last month.

FINALS

Despite some issues with seeding, I think the two best teams in Peel will still meet in the final. As far as I know they have not played each other this season so there are a lot of unknowns. Does D'Youville's athleticism and stronger D trump Xavier's height and superior outside shooting? D'Youville looked like the stronger team in the first part of the season but Xavier has looked better down the stretch. Both teams have coaching issues: Lack of experience for one team and lack of control over the wannabe coach in the stands for the other. Will this come down to something as simple as D'Youville's home court advantage or perhaps Xavier's confidence from the Rimrocker will win the day?

I'm going to flip a coin and say Xavier in O/T.

I agree with peel fan good predictions but over the goetz games i hve seen the dominate at home the crowd reallie gets them hype so i see the Xavier vs Goetz in the semis, a game tht can go both ways Goetz has revenge as they lost to them and i think the hve a better chance to come on top. Also the second game against Xavier i watched Goetz just played sloppy and stefan didnt live up to his hype u got a T foul for swearing to the ref and had like onlie 1 blk and like max 4points and air balled a 3 badly, maybe i cant judge on him on tht performance but he isnt very disciplined.

Peeel fan, what hype are you talking about with fletchers? if anything there isnt any hype.... Fletchers hud beat DY, trust me it shud be a gud game. but fletchers will come out on top. Dy has about 5 plays now, most of their players quit... give me 5 solid reasons why Dy has an edge of fletchers.?

does xavier have a good coach?

Xavier coach doesnt seem to do a lot from what i see, and towards the endof some games he start to spazz out against the players. I see their team more or a student coached team. I cant say too much only saw him two games.

Im sorry to say but the majority of Peel juniors coaches just are not up to speed.

Was their a guideline given to the coaches who polled for seedings? It looks like there wasn't.

It should be intense
