Games of the Week (April 13-18)

Now we embark on the meat of the schedule. Three days full of division action. Most games on Monday, Wednesday and Friday from here until the end of the season will pit division rivals against one another. Follow along as we start to see the cream rise to the top:

Chambersburg at Cumberland Valley, Monday, 4:15 -- The Trojans and Calvin Mentzer (left) have two division losses already and can't afford many more. CV, on the other hand, can set up a huge division clash at Central Dauphin on Wednesday if they beat Chambersburg and Central Dauphin knocks off Cedar Cliff. Speaking off those two ...

Central Dauphin at Cedar Cliff, Monday, 4:15 -- The last two games, Cedar Cliff has outscored CD East and Chambersburg 32-7. The Rams should pose a more difficult test, although we thought the same about the Trojans before the Colts ripped them, 17-5.

Trinity at Camp Hill, Wednesday, 4 -- A big rivalry game has turned into a big game in the Capital Division this year. Both teams are unbeaten in the division but Camp Hill has impressive wins over Greencastle-Antrim and Boiling Springs. Trinity's wins have come against Milton Hershey and Harrisburg. For the record, the Lions also own a win over Milton Hershey.

Cedar Cliff at Red Land, Wednesday, 4 -- Back to the Commonwealth. This one isn't on City Island but it's sure to pack the same punch. In preseason Cedar Cliff was a favorite in the division while Red Land was supposed to take a step back. Neither has followed that exact route so far. Last year these two split and this should be another highly intense meeting.

East Pennsboro at Susquenita, Friday, 4 p.m. -- Both of these teams have been surprising so far but a little luster was taken off East Penn's fast start in Thursday's 3-2 loss at Big Spring. If the Panthers keep catcher Bobby Kohl from hitting home runs, they'll have a chance.
