Both Kaplan (8-3) and Iota (9-2) have made it this far into the playoffs, but they square off this Friday at 7:00 PM to determine who is worthy to move on. Kaplan has blown out its past four opponents, so Iota has its work cut out for it.
Kaplan went up against KIPP Renaissance last week. Kaplan's offense came in ready to rumble, picking up 22 points in the first half. That gave them a 22 - 7 advantage at the half. The defense contributed as well, holding KIPP Renaissance to zero points in the second half. At the end of the day, Kaplan walked away with a breezy 35 - 7 win.
Meanwhile, Iota kept its home record unblemished after another positive outing on its own turf. It claimed a 42 - 28 victory over Patterson last week.
Kaplan and Iota will be experiencing extra pressure in this one since they are each in the midst of a winning streak (Kaplan with six wins, Iota with four). We'll see which team can handle the heat this Friday.
