Rye Country seems like a good "B" team..Is there any other team in this "private" league that are any good ? If not, Rye Country should win this playoff in my opinion. Good luck
Poly Prep from Brooklyn is the top team in this tournament, and the overwhelming favorite to win it again (they won last year beating Hackley in the finals). Hackley School is the #3 seed in this tourney; they lost once to RyeCDS this season (4-2), and 3 times to Poly Prep (including two close games).
