  Can the year of upsets continue?!?
  On the Island both the South 1 (Oak Bay) and South 2 (Belmont) seeds have lost - Belmont done - Oak Bay is playing for 3rd.
  Provincially - in a span of 48 hours all five of the top teams LOST games in their playoffs.  Handsworth, currently #1 and #1 for most of the season, HAD THEIR SEASON END abruptly when West Vancouver beat them - twice in 24 hours!!  #2 Kitsilano lost to #7 Vancouver College, #3 St. Thomas More lost to #8 RC Palmer, #4 Oak Bay fell to Vanier and #5 White Rock lost to #13 North Delta.
  Can Vanier make it a 6-pack?  Dover Bay is currently #6 in BC... we all know what happens when you're left standing when the music ends.
