Piedmont (8-4) has a real challenge coming up -- the hardest it has met all year. Both it and Cardinal Newman (10-1) 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. Cardinal Newman is skipping in on a nine-game winning streak; likewise, Piedmont rolls in with three consecutive wins.
Piedmont went up against Kennedy last week. Piedmont had a sluggish start, posting two total points in the first half. That put it at a 6 - 2 disadvantage. Thankfully, the other side of the ball came through for it: the defense held Kennedy to two points in the second half. That ultimately gave them a 16 - 8 win. As for Cardinal Newman, everything went its way against San Marin last week as it secured a 56 - 18 victory.
While both teams are coming off of wins, only one will triumph this week. We'll find out soon enough who that will be.
