MARC Playoff Matchups Set

York College secured the top spot in the MARC Tier II Men’s DII College league with a 60-10 defeat of Bloomsburg.

The Mean ’n’ Green had already edged East Stroudsburg, their closest competition, 25-24 on Oct. 25. The MARC takes three teams from Tier I and one team from its Tier II into the playoffs, so York’s one-point victory over ESU was a cruel blow to East Stroudsburg.
