I Semifinals to the Sea Kings on Thursday in Orange County. Loyola and CdM have split both meetings this season, with the visiting team winning each time. The Cubs defeated CdM back on March 11th by a 3-1 score, while the Sea Kings did the same at Leavey Gym on May 6th.
STATE PLAYOFFS: A win in the rubbermatch against CdM would push Loyola into the CIF SoCal Regional Finals against the winner of the semi between [1] Newport Harbor and [4] Cathedral Catholic. The Cubs would be going for a fifth regional crown. More info on the CIF State Regional Playoffs:
