The road to a state championship

Chester made it all the way to the PIAA Class AAAA title game last year, before falling to eventual champ Schenley (pictured, courtesy Pittsburgh Tribune-Review).

The road to the state tournament is set, with the District One Class AAAA seedings announced Sunday. Here's where Delco's teams landed. Higher seeds host Friday's games:

1 Chester vs. 32 Methacton
5 Penn Wood vs. 28 Central Bucks South
6 Ridley vs. 27 Owen J. Roberts
8 Lower Merion vs. 25 Academy Park
9 Conestoga vs. 24 Council Rock South
18 Glen Mills vs. 15 Plymouth-Whitemarsh
21 Haverford vs. 12 Cheltenham
23 Garnet Valley vs. 10 Coatesville
26 Upper Darby vs. 7 Downingtown West
30 Chichester vs. 3 Pennsbury

In my last notebook, I projected that as many as eight Delco teams could make the tournament. I'm surprised so many got in, but I'm not complaining. The complexion of the game changes in the playoffs. I'm pumped for Friday.

Lower Merion isn't a Delco team.

Lower Merion and Conestoga are considered Delco area teams because they play in the Central League, which is composed of Delco teams. Herego the confusion.
