*** Follow 2021-22 VHSL Playoff Brackets Here ***
Wow, what a wild night it was on Friday in the regional playoffs for VHSL Hoops. Our picks went just .500 for the first time all postseason as there were numerous surprises, which we'll have more time to document later as I multi-task with a broadcast in Miami for ODU Women's Basketball at FIU. So keep an eye peel for 'Weekend Headlines' on either Sunday or Monday.
Let's give you the updated prediction record total and then give you our selections - sure to go wrong again right? - for regional semis and title games on this final Saturday of February...
