Girls AAAA, AAA and A

Okay, let's go with the other three classes in girls' basketball.
The L-L League representativesin the 4-A field are Hempfield, the league champions: Penn Manor, Warwick, Garden Spot, Cedar Crest and McCaskey.
The seeded teams are Wilson (1), Red Lion (2), Cedar Crest (3) and Hempfield (4).

One L-L team will be eliminated in the first round as coach Lenny Groft's team opens with Warwick.

Wilson has to face Hempfield in the semi-finals and that should be a whale of a game. Hempfield also has a tough second round game against Central Dauphin.

Red Lion is always battled tested when it comes to the playoffs and would probably have to play a tough Lower Dauphin team in the second round.

Hempfield and Cedar Crest could easily meet in the finals. But both have tough roads to get to that point.

In Class AAA, L-S is the top seed, but are they THAT good. A favorite to possibly play in the L-L League finals last week, the Pioneers were crushed in the first round by Hempfield. Hempfield was a team L-S beat to open the season.

Lancaster Mennonite is the fourth seed and I think they have a tough opener (before the Columbia game Wednesay) with Eastern, the defending Class AAA champs.

Also with a tough first round draw is Lancaster Catholic, who meets third-seeded Boiling Springs in the opener. Lancaster Catholic is the 14th seed and had to win a play-in to qualify for the playoffs. Wow!

Manheim Central is the other L-L representative in the Class AAA field.

In Class A, there are 12 teams. I still say its the Lebanon Catholic Invitational!
