Bookmark and Share

Our area's private school teams went 4-for-4 in getting bids to the NCISAA playoffs, as the brackets were announced on Sunday evening.

The Cary Christian girls team got the No. 1 seed in the 2-A bracket after finishing the year a whopping 26-3 and will host 16-seeded Westminster Catawba on Tuesday. The boys team will be going to the playoffs for the first time ever, and are a 14-seed. They will have to play at 3-seed Gaston Day School.

Cary Academy's boys team, in their first year under Kenny Inge, got the 11th seed in the 3-A NCISAA playoffs (Note: only 12 teams get in). They will face Forsyth Country Day School, a team they lost to 78-65 back on Feb. 10. And although the Lady Chargers have struggled mightily as of late, losing six of their last seven, they still managed to get a bid as the 9th seed. Coach Kim Shaw's team will play Durham Academy again, and that's not a good thing. The Lady Chargers are fresh off losing to DA in the conference tournament by 20 points.
