CIF San Diego Section girls basketball Open Division playoff predictions: Can anyone stop La Jolla Country Day?
BY MARLON WELLS AND HASEEN WILLIAMS
The San Diego Section girls basketball playoff picture is set, and as expected La Jolla Country Day is the No. 1 seed in the Open Division bracket, but after that it gets real tricky.
Westview is the No. 2 seed and many believe that this is where the system (MaxPreps) that the CIF San Diego Section uses is flawed. Westview is 26-2, but has not played a schedule as tough as some of the other teams that are in the Open Division in some people's eyes. But don’t let that strength of schedule fool you, the Wolverines can compete with the best of them.
Below are our Open Division picks for every round. Post your picks in the comments or hit us up on Twitter @sbliveca.
