anyone know who is in the Nassau power conference this year?

Is there a place to view the Suffolk County 2019 Seedings?

Seedings for what? Suffolk classifications and schedules are based solely on enrollment - no power conferences, if that's what you mean.

Same as last year Oceanside out, South Side in

So who are the next best schools that didn't get in or asked not to be in? To be the best you need to play the best

They still seed the schools within the Class. #1

Same as last year Oceanside out, South Side in

South Side over Plainedge that's surprising.

Wrong. All NYS schools classifications are based on enrollment . In Suffolk the A division schools ( large schools) stay within their division for 14 of 16 games while the b,c,d division schools essentially form one division playing 14 of 16 games in that division. Those 14 games are decided based on your preseason seed with the higher seeded teams playing a greater number of the other higher ranked teams than a lower seeded team does. Here is where I may be mistaken but I believe in A it was NP, Riv, MC, SE, SW, WM. In B,C D I think it was ESM, Sinai, WB, BBP, WHB, WI, Matt. D1 is fairly weak and you end up w a lot of blowout games because after those 4 games the other teams really drop off . BCD is more competitive as this 6 games are all competitive then you have teams like RP, SWR, Sayville and a few others .

Comes down to which coach asked to move up or cried to stay down. The louder one usually wins. The Nassau regular season power conference just is awesome. The top teams in the 2nd division will win 75% of their games by 10 or more goals. Such a waste just like in suffolk

Plainedge is lucky to have dodged that bullet, Southside in for a long season in that conference

Kudos to SS for trying to play meaningful games. After the top couple of teams in the division below its like playing PAL teams. You don't get much out of games when you win by 15

Southside HS always comes out with a lot of pride in ost sports. Glad to welcome them. We know of few of the girls on the team and I am sure they will be excited.

Pretty fair assessment. But you can't lump RP and SWR in with teams like Sayville. RP beat them 12-4 with all of their subs playing quality minutes. I'm not saying RP is a top club, they are not. But, they are definitely a mid-tier club. As is SWR. Sayville would be grouped with Bellport, EBP, KP and Copaige in the lower tier. Just my opinion, but the biggest difference between top, middle and lower tiers is the number of high caliber players (players that can take over a game). The top teams have 2-3 of those types of players. They are a defensive nightmare. Mid-tiers may have one of those and one or two very good complimentary players. Those bottom tier teams have no true elite level talent. I'm not saying there are not good players on those squads, there definitely are. But, they lack depth and the dominant game-changers.

Wow! ESM really handled Mt. Sinai yesterday! Northrop looked terrible!
