No Pace, No Problem: #5 Ramaz Grinds Past #12 YULA in Tier I Qualifier
This one didn’t turn into chaos. It turned into a grind, and that played right into Ramaz’s hands. The #5 Rams ousted the #12 YULA Panthers 47–35, in TiervI qualifying and from the moment the pace slowed early, you could feel exactly where this game was headed. Coming in, the question was: could YULA speed this up? Could they create that frantic, pressure-filled game where turnovers turn into points and rhythm gets disrupted? The answer came quickly.

Note: Akiva Poppers has resigned from the panel as he is now an assistant coach at Ramaz. In his place is MacsLive Associate Producer, Zachary Sicklick. Wednesday picks: HANC vs. JEC Yosef Silver: These two teams played earlier in the year, but both coaches would tell you that they aren’t putting too much stock into the JEC blowout victory. JEC is a talented team with a few nice pieces. In their playoff game, HANC showed us they can hang with some of the best. I think this g
