PSAL A PLAYOFFS
In 1988-89 the PSAL tried a new playoff format in the 'A' league. The early playoff rounds were borough playoff games featuring four brackets: The Brooklyn bracket, the Queens bracket and the Bronx bracket and the Manhattan-Staten Island bracket. These would all join together for the PSAL quarterfinals, but in a new twist the 8 remaining teams would be seeded and match up accordingly.
