The smallest division in the youth league, the 13-to-15 year-old age group was one of the most exciting this season.

The BENGALS finished with a 5-1 record, winning the regular-season title by one game over the 4-2 VIKINGS. The STEELERS had an up-and-down year, finishing at .500 with all three of their losses coming at the hands of the top two teams. At the bottom of the division, there is a three-way tie for last place between the REDSKINS, RAVENS and PANTHERS, who all sit at 2-4.

In the first round, the RAVENS will take on the REDSKINS on field two at 4:15 p.m. The two teams played back on April 23, with the RAVENS winning a hotly-contested 23-20 game. Fans can expect this contest to be close as well, as the REDSKINS have one of the division’s best offenses while the RAVENS excel on defense.

 

The winner of this matchup will take on the BENGALS in the second round. The division winners scored at least 20 points in every one of their games this spring, averaging just over 30 per contest. Their only loss was a 31-25 defeat to the RAVENS back in week one. If the two teams meet up in the second round, it will be a game to watch as the BENGALS will be looking for revenge.

 

On the other side of the bracket, the STEELERS will play the PANTHERS on field one, with the winner taking on the VIKINGS. Last week, the STEELERS beat the PANTHERS by two scores, and they’ll be the favorite heading into the weekend.

If the STEELERS can survive the first round, it should be another exciting game in the second round, as both previous matchup with the VIKINGS were decided by just one point.

 

The championship game will be held at 5:40 p.m. on field two. It will be one of the biggest matchups of the day, with the oldest and most experienced teams facing off against one another.
