2022-23 Week 11C: No. 2 seed Clairemont Clocked by No. 15 Brawley
Six favorites went down in Boys’ divisions I-V in the 38-game first round of the San Diego Section playoffs.
Seedings are based on power ratings that essentially are a comparison of “who you played and how who you played did.”
There were some stunners, three in D-IV and V.
Brawley (8-18), a 15th-ranked struggler in D-V, traveled 132 miles and over the cold and windy mountains to startle Clairemont (22-6), the No. 2 seed, 55-40.
There also were a couple 3-14 upsets.
Play resumes Friday, including quarterfinals games in the eight-team Open Division.
Surprises are highlighted.
