And I think that Westmont will really benefit from moving into the 3rd seed spot. They get to avoid both Richland and LV until the championship game. If they get past a good CC team they may get a juniata team that doesn't look as good as their record may indicate in the Semi's.
I definitely would think Central Cambria is the bigger test for Westmont.  The first meeting was a good one.  CC's Holsinger and Bopp are very good post players.  
It's a shame Juniata gets the number two seed whenever they aren't as good as their record indicates.  They also get lucky and get to play the Mount Union and West Shamokin winner.  I don't believe either of those teams are very good either.  Central Cambria and Westmont would both dominate any of those three teams.

I'm not anticipating much from Juniata. They just lost to Tyrone by 20 and Richland handled Tyrone pretty easily a few weeks ago.

Yes but that was a few weeks ago and Tyrone definitely got better since then *Sarcasm*

Adding one of their rival's best players might help them get better than they were a few weeks ago.

Looks like 4A semis are at higher seed after all. Good deal.

Cambria Heights hasn't won a basketball game since December 26 and they are riding a 15 game losing streak. They are also 0-15 in the Laurel Highlands.

They are in the postseason.

And that's fine, by rule they are allowed to be there. I think next year they should tighten up the postseason and say 10 teams make it instead of 12. The six classification thing is still working out the kinks, and I think that's one thing the committee should take note of moving forward.

They should make you have a point requirement first like you have to have a 2.0 or 2.5 then take top 12
