Flyers Cup Game Plans

Holy Ghost Prep Head Coach Steve Ivcic came right out and said it. "We don't have the depth they have...And they'll want to play up-tempo. But we have things we're going to try." This was in todays Inquirer. The phrase "things we're going to try" sounds like a secret game plan. The trap or some sort of left-wing lock come to mind when trying to slow a game down. But with most of your scoring coming from a single player, winger Nick Seravalli, you would want him free to play his game. How do you allow that? Long passes, Man high, using the Swedish torpedo offense. Or perhaps it is all a mental strategy to calm and focus his players. Conestoga is going to rely on their defense in the AA game. "We told our players that if we’re the best defensive team, we would win the Flyers Cup" said Pioneers Head Coach Mike Graves on dailylocal.com. And West Chester East Head Coach Drew Cox feels that momentum will carry them forward, "we are coming together the way championship teams come together in the playoffs.” The Class A championship game between Bayard Rustin and West Chester East is scheduled for 11 a.m. The Class AA championship game between Conestoga and Pennridge is set for 1:30 p.m.; the Class AAA title game between Holy Ghost Prep and La Salle is scheduled for 4 and will be shown live on CN8.
