Seeds if the playoffs began this week:
1) Red Hill
2) Appleton
3) Harrisburg
4) Second City
5 and 6) Tie Belgrade and Scott
7) Milwaukee
8) Windy City
In general the haves are separating from the have-nots. Other the teams not listed above, only Strongsville (1 game) is within 5 games of qualifying for a playoff berth. The two other leading pretenders, Tokyo and Susquehanna (6 games), will meet in bucolic Pennsylvania this weekend to see if either can obtain an edge.
