The Grizzlies earned the #5 seed and will face #4 Paradise, at Paradise. The date has not yet been determined. It may be Thursday, Feb. 26th, or Friday, Feb. 27th, depending on how the rest of the playoff brackets take shape. We will update as the information becomes available.
Lassen finished the regular season, 13-12. Despite a 7-18 record, Paradise was seeded ahead of Lassen. (Don’t get me started on that, and yes I am well versed in the power points system, but…).
