Lena-Winslow-LeRoy preview

LeRoy vs. Lena-Winslow: LeRoy hasn’t really been pushed all season as its 16-point win over Galena in the quarterfinals is the closest they have been to being defeated this season. It is an issue that the Panthers defense which only allowed 62 points in nine regular season games has given up 71 in three playoff games. Lena-Winslow definitely looks the postseason dynamo that they have been over much of the last five years as has pummeled all three opponents in the postseason thus far and has scored 154 points in those contests.

Pick: Lena-Winslow
