I would have to say that Lancaster has beaten some formidable opponents this year. An example would be Fort Mill High in a scrimmage. It can, actually, be smart in the long run to play teams that you can beat outside of region play because each region has its own rules for tie breakers. Lancaster has made the play-offs in the past ahead of other schools because of their overall record. Even though, they had split games with schools in their region. If the goal is to make the playoffs, this is a good thing to do. Playing a tough out of region schedule to prepare for the play-offs could quite possibly keep a team from making the play-offs. By the way, don't take the Bruins for granted, they have some very good players!
