What Is On the Line for the Spartans?
Entering their final game of the season, Scarborough has already clinched a play-off spot(their second in four seasons). However, depending on how the final day of the season(Wednesday, February 14) plays out, they could be District 24-4A's second seed OR third seed. What is the practical difference between these two positions? Let's take a look.
Current Standings:
Yates- 12-0 (Yates has already clinched the district title. They will face Cleveland)
Scarborough- 8-3 (Game remaining: Wheatley-4:30 at Barnett)
North Forest- 8-3 (Game remaining: Worthing- 7:30 at Butler)
Wheatley- 6-5 (Wheatley has already clinched fourth place. They will face Hardin-Jefferson)
#2-The team that finishes in second place will play the third place finisher in District 23-4A in the first round. This will be either Huffman or Liberty.
If they can win their first round game, the second place finisher in District 24-4A avoids a second round match-up with #1 ranked Silsbee. They would be on a path to meet Silsbee in the third round.
#3-The team that finishes in third place will play the second place finisher in District 23-4A in the first round. This will also be either Huffman or Liberty.
If the #3 team can win their first round game, their prize would be a second round match-up with Silsbee.

Spartans Clinch a Play-off Berth
For the second time in four seasons, the Scarborough Spartans are going to the play-offs. Scarborough clinched a post-season berth with a 49-39 win over Washington High School Saturday afternoon at Delmar Field House. (NOTE: The scoreboard read "49-37", but I'm confident Washington's final basket didn't get counted.)
The win was the Spartans' fifth in a row and puts them in sole possession of second place in District 24-4A with three games to play. They were led (according to my score book, which is not official) in scoring by Jared Holley with 17 points. Noah Smith had 14 points and Quinton Hudson had 11.
