CVC predictors update

With one week to go, here are the standings:

Harold Crane: 7-1 (54-14)
Stephanie Greenlaw: 8-0 (52-16)
Jack Hanhauser: 7-1 (50-18)
John McGrurer: 8-0  (48-19-1)
Joe Edelstein: 8-0 (48-20)
Sandra Klepach: 7-1 (42-26)

As you see from last week’s scores, it was an easy week. Half the people went undefeated while the other half missed just one game. This week will [...]

Solon faces must win this Friday against Strongsville

The Comets have played a very rugged schedule this season, and they face one of their toughest tests yet this Friday night.
Strongsville comes in with just one loss. Unfortunately, they stand between Solon and the playoffs. Oh, and so does St. Eds.
Yes, it is true, a win this Friday night does not guarantee a playoff [...]

Aurora, Chagrin Falls and Kirtland clinch playoff berths; Perry needs win

Aurora has not only clinched a playoff berth, but they will also have a home playoff game no matter what happens this Friday night against Wickliffe.
The Greenmen are currently No. 2 in Region 9. An Aurora win and a Walsh Jesuit loss (they play Warren G Harding this Friday night) should give Aurora the top [...]

Aurora and Perry hang in top 25 PD poll

The Plain Dealer kept both Aurora and Perry fairly steady in its rankings.
Aurora appears at No. 20, up two spots from a week ago, while Perry appears at No. 25. No other Chagrin Valley Conference teams appear in the poll.
One could make a case for Chagrin Falls, but they were handled pretty easily by Aurora. [...]

Was West G poisoned prior to playing Perry?

That’s what some are wondering in an article today in the PD:
In the early morning hours Friday before the Wolverines’ homecoming game, nearly 70 people close to or on the football team, including dozens of players, became ill in what is being investigated as a case of possible poisoning.

The common factor appears to be a [...]

Aurora overtakes Chagrin Falls in Region 9 playoff race

What a difference one week can make.
Chagrin Falls was sitting on top of Region 9 last week. Now they are No. 4. Last week Aurora was No. 4. Now they are No. 1.
This change happened because of Aurora’s big 49-27 victory over the Tigers. What a turn around for the Greenmen.
They started the season 1-2 [...]

Solon drops out of top 8 in Region 1 playoff race

The Comets have dropped to No. 9 in Region 1 and will have to win out to make the playoffs.
The Comets also have to hope that No. 8 Brecksville-Broadview Heights loses to Steele this weekend. Steele is undefeated and would be worth a ton of playoff points for Brecksville-Broadview Heights. The Comets have on remaining [...]

Three CVC teams would make the playoffs right now

Three Chagrin Valley Conference teams would make the playoffs if the playoff started today, and one of them might surprise you.
Perry is not one of the three teams. The Pirates are currently No. 9 in Division IV Region 13. How could a 6-1 team not be in the top 8?
For starters, the Pirates only have [...]

Comets hanging on to last playoff spot in Region 1

I don’t need to tell Comet fans how important last week’s game against Brunswick was.
The close 20-17 loss saw Solon drop from No. 6 to No. 8 in Region 1, and there are several schools looking to overtake the Comets. Solon (4-3 overall) has 11.13 playoff point average, and No. 12 Warren Harding has a [...]
