Friday, 7 p.m.

Blue Devils can still make the playoffs via coin flip if they win out, Messalonskee loses out and Skowhegan splits its last two games.

Edward Little (2-5) at Oxford Hills (1-6)

Friday, 7 p.m.

The last time they met at Gouin, they played five overtimes and scored a combined 104 points.

Gardiner (6-1) at Leavitt (7-0)

Friday, 7 p.m.

If the Tigers win and Mt. Blue loses, Tigers and Hornets tie for the top spot in the Crabtrees, but Gardiner gets the top seed for winning head-to-head.

Mt. Blue (6-1) at Waterville (4-3)

Saturday, 1:30 p.m.

Cougars renew acquaintances with another old rival and, with a little help, may know they'll be playing for home field throughout the playoffs.

Mountain Valley (6-1) at Cape Elizabeth (6-1)

Friday, 7 p.m.

Falcons get home field in Western B with a victory.

Fryeburg Academy (2-5) at Spruce Mountain (3-4)

Friday, 7 p.m.

With a win, the Phoenix clinch a playoff spot in their first year in Class B. They can still make it with a loss, but will need help.

Oak Hill (3-4) at Maranacook (6-1)

Thanks to their tough crossover schedule, it isn't a must win for the Raiders. But they would make things a lot easier on themselves. And the Black Bears are hungry for as many home playoff games as they can get.

Lisbon (5-2) at Winthrop (3-4)

Friday, 7 p.m.

Game may mean more to Ramblers, who are fighting for their playoff lives. But Dick Mynahan will have the Greyhounds believing otherwise by Friday.
