Crosstown Brackets - The Heat Index

Crosstown Brackets

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

The IHSA released its Class 4A baseball pairings on Friday, and the brackets will have a distinct crosstown feel.

After what could be a critical three-game DuPage Valley Conference series in mid-May, regional host Naperville North and Naperville Central will meet again on May 22.

If Waubonsie Valley can win its play-in game against Plainfield South, it will advance to meet top-seeded Neuqua Valley in the same regional. The Wildcats swept a three-game series from rival Waubonsie last week.

Seventh-seeded Benet will host a regional and match up against the winner of Plainfield North-East Aurora.

All these teams fall under the Urbana Super-Sectional -- if the Redwings manage to advance out of this bracket, they won't be playing across the street at Benedictine (another host) and will instead make the drive down to University of Illinois.

Check out the pairings here. Any fearless predictions?
