Update from the May 1 post -
Top four seeds - will still come from the group of Sallies, Archmere, Cape, CR, Tower, Friends.
Sallies looks to be safely in the top four. CR and Friends will each probably need a win in their respective games coming up against Archmere to lock up a bye. Archmere needs to win two of three against CR, Friends and/or Sallies to guarantee a top four. The winner of the Cape-Tower game also looks to end up with a bye. All six of these teams look to be safely in the tourney somewhere.
Charter and DMA - again, both look to be in (Charter has an automatic bid), but strength of schedule will keep them out of the top seeds.
Last four open spots - still too early to guess how this ends up. Dover now controls it own destiny with the win yesterday over Sussex Tech - they lock a spot by winning two of their last three games.
There are three games today that will start narrowing the field -
Hodgson-Newark - Hodgson may need to win their last five games to have a shot - a loss today would probably eliminate their playoff chances
McKean-Mount Pleasant - This is an elimination game - McKean needs to win out and finish 13-2 to have a playoff chance, so a loss today knocks them out. Mount Pleasant will need to win out and get some luck to make the playoffs if they lose today.
AI DuPont - Brandywine: A loss today probably finishes Brandywine's playoff chances. Even with a strong record, I don't see a way for AI to make it, even with a win today.
There are still too many games left to do a realistic "How do the seedings look today" schedule -
