Resurrection Catholic heading to the playoffs

After playing an eight-game regular season schedule, comprised of all district games, Resurrection Catholic is on a bye week to close out the 2020 campaign.

And yet, the Eagles still haven’t played their last game.

By virtue of Mount Olive losing 30-0 to Lumberton tonight, Resurrection claims the fourth and final playoff berth in region 4 class 1A.

The Eagles only had one way into the postseason and that was with a little bit of help.

Resurrection and Mount Olive now have the same district record of 5-3, giving RCS the head-to-head tie breaker from its 30-6 victory back in September.

The Eagles are going to the playoffs for the seventh year in a row, giving the Gulf Coast at least 15 teams in the post season.
