Fans playoff predictions: Woonsocket, Hendricken, Bay View, La Salle

Readers on HSGametime have been picking the winners of the high school basketball playoff games this week, and although the polls continue to be live until game time, we're giving you a snapshot now of what the readers think.

Defending Division I boys champion Hendricken plays tonight against Mount Pleasant, and the Hawks are a strong favorite (113 votes to 56, or 67 percent to 33 percent) to get to the finals again this year. Hendricken's opponent, if the readers are right, will be Woonsocket, which has 64 out of 100 votes so far to win its game tonight against North Kingstown.

On the girls side, readers are predicting a rematch of last year's Division I final between Bay View and La Salle. The top-seeded Bengals (last year's runner-up) are heavy reader favorites to beat Coventry tonight (65 votes to 10, or 87 percent to 13 percent). Meanwhile, the defending champion Rams -- though seeded lower than opponent South Kingstown -- get 46 out of 74 votes to beat the Rebels tonight (that's a 62 percent to 38 percent ratio).
