Lots of big games this weekend................some can go from first to last
With only today and Sunday left in the regular season many of the divisions are yet to be decided and a few of those can swing teams from first to last place in the Majors Division.
The 9U National has the Palm Beach Thunder just a game ahead of the Parkland Pokers but the two play a doubleheader and the winner could decide whether they go into the Majors or AAA playoffs. Over in the 9U American, the Wellington Warriors last season Champion could be on the outside looking In, they are currently in third place but with two games left against Miramar, they too can go from Majors to AAA playoffs. Wellington, with a split will win the division and send the Canes to the AAA Playoffs, but a Miramar sweep will send the Warriors out of the Majors Division playoffs into the AAA.
The 10Under American Division is pretty much wrapped-up by the PL Bulldogs, but the fight is in the last spot for the Majors Division, with the Panthers, Sandlot, Pokers and Tigers all within a game of each other.
The Sandlot has a tough road ahead as they will face the Bulldogs and then the Tigers on Sunday and the Pokers will play a double header today against the Tigers, the game originally on the schedule fro the 22nd. So for the 4th spot Tigers must win.
The 10u National is all set with the top four teams in, as they stand now, with the possibility of the Piranaz seeding higher If they win their remaining games.
11u AAA the division is pretty much wrapped up here too, with the top four teams advancing to the first round of the playoffs.
11U Majors American division winner is Nike with the top four teams already in place, except the Miramar Canes who has two games left and they can move up in the standings with a doubleheader win against the Outlaws. The canes can move to second place if they win their two games, they are currently in the fourth spot.
11U Majors National is also wrapped up with the TPX Titans taking the title and as it stands now the top four teams will go into the first round and will face the teams from the American Division as we will cross bracket play in the first round of the playoffs.
12u AAA American The top 6 teams get in, but a race for the last spot comes down to the Cocunut Creek Hawks and the SF Blaze, the team that wins their games will be in, the Blaze have two shots at is against the SF Thunder, while the Hawks take on the Broncos.
The 12u AAA National has the Broward Jaguars in place where If they defeat Cooper City they would end up in a tie with the Weston Hawks Black and then we will go into the the league's tie-breaker which in this case will go the last tie-breaker in the table which is a coin flip. Good luck to both.
12U Majors Division...............The Race ! with the exception of thetop two spots everything else can change. We have some big games this weekend with Dynasty playing the West Boca Panthers Black and the Panthers also playing the PL Bulldogs, the 8th spot it is still up in the air, with Margate, PL Bulldogs and the Canes still having a chance at getting in.
13U American Division.....How good was our Predictor here, although these two are yet win it, but they were picked to be in the finals.................well we will get a preview today as the top two teams in the division meet for the division title. The SF Scorpions playing in the league for the first time this season under new Coach Geoge De La Nuez has his team going against Cooperstown Runner-up Miramar Canes both teams tied at the moment for first place at 11-2 with the winner taking it The last spot is up in the air with Team Seminole and the Margate Titans having a shot at it.
13u National Div...............the Naples Mustangs are back after a one season hiatus from the FPBL, the Mustangs will take on the Cooper City Cowboys today for a shot at the division title, they must win both games in order to take it. In the meantime the Cowboys can do some damage by winning both games and finishing up in second place in the division.
13u National B has the two Wildcats in it with the Plantaion Stars sitting in the last spot, but a Thunder win can derail the Stars from playing in the playoffs.
14 Under American Div...............This division will be up for grabs now, since the CS Diamonds opted NOT to play in the 14u playoffs. This will allow one other team at a shot of winning it. The Maddogs and the SF Extreme will now advance into the Final Four Tournament. The Stars & Scorpions will now have a shot at making the playoffs, only one of the two will get in and it all depends what happens this weekend.
14u National & National (A-2) These two divisions seem to be over, with no one key game to decide any payoff spot, basically the top four teams on each side are In.
