A Hudson win and they take the #1 seed. A Carthage win would likely force a playoff for the #1 seed. Hudson took the first game, 2-1 3. Silsbee (8-4, 15-9) @ #5 Jasper (8-4, 19-6) 21-3A.

Guest Orangeboy Posted April 18, 2008 Report Posted April 18, 2008 That Hudson-Carthage game will probably be a classic battle. And next year Jasper will get in the middle of it.
