ReplyDeleteThe West Kelowna Warriors (37 points) will end up as the eighth seed in the Interior Division and play the pennant-winning Penticton Vees in the opening round of the playoffs. The Trail Smoke Eaters will finish second and take on a crossover team in Round 1.
The Victoria Grizzlies (Island, 47 points) will finish fifth in their division and cross-over into the Interior as either the sixth or seventh seed. Langley Rivermen (46 points) and the defending champion Prince George Spruce Kings (Mainland, 42 points) are battling for fourth place in their division with the Rivermen holding a four-point bulge on Prince George, and each team has three games remaining.
Whoever finishes fourth will stay in their division and play the league-champion Coquitlam Express in the first round. The fifth-place finisher will move into the Interior with Victoria and will be the sixth or seventh seed, depending on points. Vernon, Salmon Arm or Wenatchee will face a crossover team for finishing in third place.
