IAAM hoops semis could be close

Tomorrow’s IAAM basketball semifinals feature some potentially interesting matchups, especially in No. 9 Archbishop Spalding at No. 3 Seton Keough in the A Conference and Severn at No. 13 St. Paul’s in the B.

Except for No. 1 and six-time defending champ St. Frances, Seton Keough has beaten every A Conference opponent, including Spalding, twice. The Gators have pulled out some close ones, including a 40-38 win over No. 10 McDonogh last week. Spalding has fallen just short in a few close ones, especially its last meeting with St. Frances when it lost by just six points. Indications are that this could be a close one.

In the B Conference, defending champion Severn takes on a St. Paul’s team that lost only one conference game – its last one to Notre Dame Prep.

The defending champion in the C Conference, Lutheran, fell to St. John’s in the quarterfinals, leaving St. John’s, Friends, Park and Catholic vying to become the new champ.

Here is the schedule for tomorrow. Games begin at 5:30 p.m., except Severn-St. Paul’s, which tips off at 5.

A CONFERENCE
Mercy at St. Frances
Spalding at Seton Keough

B CONFERENCE
Severn at St. Paul's
Pallotti at St. Mary's

C CONFERENCE
St. John's at Friends
Catholic High at Park
