Ridley again making waves in post season
 
(CONTINUED)
Class AA
    In today’s second round, one of the most intriguing match ups pits fourth-seeded Villa Maria Academy (19-2) hosting fifth-seeded Unionville (11-7).
    The Hurricanes won the Catholic Academies League championship and has lost only to the No. 5 team in the Phillylacrosse.com Poll, Strath Haven, (13-11) and No. 1 Radnor (19-6). Villa Maria went undefeated in the league and routed defending champion Merion Mercy, 18-9, in the league title game.
    Last week the Hurricanes coasted past Owen J. Roberts, 19-7, in the first round of districts. Unionville, meanwhile, has shown to be the giant-killer of the regular season, with overtime wins over third-ranked Springfield-Delco (12-11) and fourth-ranked Great Valley (15-14). The latter prevented the Patriots from sharing the Ches-Mont League American Conference crown with Bayard Rustin.
    Unionville also dropped one-goal games to Rustin (7-6) and Catholic League champion Archbishop Carroll (10-9) and early in the year to Ridley (7-6). Unionville coach Wendy Landry, though, has admitted her team has been an enigma at times, as evidenced by a 17-5 loss to Downingtown West and an 11-4 loss to Rustin.
    Other games today feature top-seeded Great Valley (17-3) hosting eighth-seeded Phoenixville (11-6), second-seeded Springfield-Delco (16-3) hosting seventh-seeded Merion Mercy (14-6) and third-seeded Strath Haven (17-3) hosting sixth-seeded Pottstown (15-6).
