		<description><![CDATA[If offseason baseball is hot-stove baseball, what is summer hockey talk? Anyway, as you&#8217;ve probably seen, I&#8217;ve put up preliminary schedules for the 2008-09 season based on schedules I&#8217;ve found online and schedules that have been sent to me. A few notes:
1. I just came across this interesting NJSIAA provision and found it interesting enough [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Obviously, Monday was a huge day for CVC hockey. Nobody picked CVC teams to go 4-0, and the biggest upset of the day came courtesy of Steinert.
Bill James has been telling me all year his team was underrated, but there really wasn&#8217;t much to back it up. The Spartans did so in a big way [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Lot of action tonight. Let&#8217;s see if we can put it in historical context.
MKA 6, Scotch Plains-Fanwood 6
Red Bank Catholic 6, Morris Knolls 5
Okay, not a lot to write home about there. Good tune-up for RBC and Knolls.
Pingry 9, Paul VI 0 - Big Blue win just their second state game in the last eight [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the best weeks of the season, the week of the various ice cups, kicked off with a bang Monday, as six of the 25 scheduled playoff games went to overtime. Cranford, Lakeland, Hunterdon Central, Monsignor Donovan and Montclair Kimberley all won overtime contests to advance to their respective semifinals. All this after Tenafly&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The Shore Conference does things its own way, and I think it worked out pretty well in this case. I have the criteria for seeding in the Shore A and Shore B tournaments &#8230; lo and behold, the Shore counted all 17 or 19 league games. Unbelievable. After the number kept getting downgraded all year, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Public B got tough near the end, but the top is certainly mouth-watering. Wouldn&#8217;t things be fun if we had one tournament? Maybe we&#8217;ll get to that scenario later. For now, here are my Public B projections:
1. Ramsey - Beat Northern Highlands twice AND finishes ahead in the standings. &#8216;Nough said.
2. Northern Highlands - Toughest [...]]]></description>

1. Fair Lawn - I actually had these the other way around at one point. But Fair Lawn was more consistent and had a split vs. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Let&#8217;s start with the private schools, since they are by far the easiest of the three projections. I&#8217;ve only got one team I had trouble placing, so let&#8217;s get an idea of what this bracket could look like &#8230;
1. Delbarton - No explanation needed.
2. CBA - Pretty easy choice.
3. St. Augustine Prep - Only one [...]]]></description>

With that in mind, here&#8217;s a breakdown (which will be updated periodically) of which teams are already in and which teams [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I always start getting questions about tiebreakers this time of year. And I always forget how to answer them.
So a year ago, I wrote it down on this blog for future reference. I did a handy-dandy search and came away with the answers. This post explains it all - at least everything I know.
