MISSOURI
Blue Springs South at Blue Springs
810 Varsity has picked BSS to this point and the Jags easily can win the rematch in this rivalry. But gotta stay on Blue Springs for the district final.
Winner: Blue Springs
Rockhurst at Park Hill
Hawklets will drag the Trojans offense down. But Park Hill has enjoyed some magic at home this year and revenge on the Trojans side.
Winner: Park Hill
Liberty at Staley
This collision course has been set since last spring. Even if Rawie is 100%, Staley just too much in the end.
Winner: Staley
William Chrisman at Fort Osage
Until little brother knocks big brother off the hill, gotta go with Fort.
Winner: Fort Osage
Belton at Battle
Really wanting to pick Belton, but the Spartans win in a one-score...battle.
Winner: Battle
Lafayette at Platte County
Irish certainly showed they aren't a pretender, but a contender after last Friday's win at Kearney. PC at home spins some thrilling endings though.
Winner: Platte County
Harrisonville at Grain Valley
Eagles won the first meeting. Wildcats get the second.
Winner: Harrisonville
Pleasant Hill at Center
Hate picking against Pleasant Hill again. But...
Winner: Center
Carl Junction at Webb City
Cardinals roll
Winner: Webb City
KANSAS
Olathe Northwest at SM East
Lancers shouldn't take a half to wake up this week.
Winner: SM East
Olathe East at BV North
Mustangs have a trickle too much offense.
Winner: BV North
Lawrence at Olathe North
Both teams had lackluster wins last week. O-North wins twice this year over LHS.
Winner: Olathe North
Olathe South at Blue Valley
Just out of principle, can't pick against Blue Valley this early in the playoffs.
Winner: Blue Valley
Junction City at Free State
Firebirds clip the Jays.
Winner: Free State
Mill Valley at Schlagle
Love to see the Schlagle/Webb season continue. But when deep play is a pitch outside...
Winner: Mill Valley
Shawnee Heights at St. James Academy
Liked Heights to go to the semis vs Aquinas, so going with T-Birds
Winner: Shawnee Heights
Turner at Pittsburg
Dragons scorch Turner.
Winner: Pittsburg
Bonner Springs at St. Thomas Aquinas
Saints roll past Braves
Winner: St. Thomas Aquinas
DeSoto at Tonganoxie
Chieftains gets a terrible draw as a district winner. DeSoto D being the best against Miege this year shows a lot.
Winner: DeSoto
Basehor-Linwood at Bishop Miege
The 4A onslaughts continue... until the system is fixed.
Winner: Bishop Miege
Paola at Labette County
Panthers claw Grizzlies
Winner: Paola
Holton at Baldwin
Gotta pick Barta and the Wildcats
Winner: Holton
