On the SCYSA website, in the brackets for the Challenge State Cup u16 Boys, it looks as if the CESA 91 Boys are seeded 1st, MPSC 2nd, and CUFC 3rd. I was just wondering how this is-since I thought in R3PL CESA finished 3rd, CUFC 1st, and MPSC last? Does anyone know why the discrepancy? Just curious.

L&L... this is because CESA and MPSC are the only two teams that qualified for premier league after last years championship game. CUFC although winning the R3PL ( and gaining an automatic birth to regionals) was an invited team that also had to play the SCSCL in the fall (also coming in first)... Kudos to the coaching staff and the parents as the demands of both leagues would have been pretty high. And of course the players for performing in both environments.

Do we know who CESA Premier and CUFC will play after the first round?

Depends on who wins: (Assuming CESA Premier and CUFC advance after first rounds)
Mount Pleasant- DSC
CUFC Palmetto- CESA Challenge

mom91... this is true for all ages in the SCSCL playoffs pairings.

1 vs 8
4 vs 5


2 vs 7
3 vs 6

For the U16 Boys
#1 = CESA P -R3PL top SC qualified team (CUFC is an invited R3PL team)
#2 = MPSC - R3PL #2 SC qualified team
#3 - CUFC Elite - #1 of SCSCL
#4 - CESA C
#5 - CUFC PAlmetto
#6 - Lexington
#7 - DSC
#8 - Bridge

Of course the assumptions are that CESA P and CUCF will both advance. CUFC has the harder game as the tied Lexington the last time they played, and the harder part of the barcket as they will be on MPSC's side. However nothing like a CESA P vs CESA C game to get a few feathers ruffled.
