The regular season was a success, but the real challenge begins now, in the postseason. This Friday St. Mary's takes on Clayton in the first playoff game of the year. St. Mary's has never lost back-to-back, and it wants to keep it that way.
St. Mary's received a tough blow as it fell 41 - 26 to Cardinal Ritter College Prep. All the same, giving senior Lavel Harris more carries than the previous game paid off since he ran for 110 yards and punched in two touchdowns. This sound performance was nothing new for Harris, who has been a rock for St. Mary's in the past nine games. Meanwhile, Clayton finished a few points shy of Affton last week, taking a 20 - 14 hit to the loss column.
After their losses, Clayton dropped to 1-7 and St. Mary's dropped to 7-2. One of the two teams is certain to get a win this week, and we'll find out Friday whether it's Clayton or St. Mary's.
