You guys are being way too analytical. Single-game championships offer so many variables as to be impossible to predict. Consider: officiating, injuries, illness, form, deflections, PKs, wonder strikes, physical mistakes, mental errors, and so on.
I wish I could tell you who is officiating Saturday's AAAA game, in view of the crew I saw in the Lower State title game last night. Just not good enough. Given that they were clearly being "evaluated" last night, I can only assume they're in the hunt for championship game assignments. Scary.
One more thing. in view of several episodes in these playoffs, the SCHSL may wish to review its match-abandonment policy.
