Two of the three area baseball teams will be close to home Monday afternoon in the first round of the PIAA playoffs. The third team is traveling a couple hours away.
Cedar Cliff and Mechanicsburg will play a doubleheader at Northern on Monday in Class AAAA and Class AAA action, respectively.
Northern will hit the road for its Class AAA game at Blair County Ballpark in Altoona.
Cedar Cliff (16-9), the 3-AAAA winner, meets District 1 fifth-place team Methacton (16-10) at 3:30 p.m.
Mechanicsburg (18-5), the 3-AAA champion, opens state play at 1 p.m. against District 12 runner-up Franklin Towne Charter (5-15).
Northern (19-5) defeated Palmyra on Thursday to qualify for the state tournament as the third-place team out of District 3. That's why the Polar Bears are heading more than two hours away for their game against District 5-6 winner Somerset (18-5).
