PSAL A PLAYOFFS
In 1984-85 there were no playoff seeds. The early playoff rounds were borough playoff games featuring three brackets: The Brooklyn bracket, the Queens bracket and the Bronx-Manhattan-Staten Island bracket. These would all join together by the PSAL city quarterfinals.

February 20th:

Semi-final Round
February 22nd:

PSAL QUEENS PLAYOFFS:
My info on the Queens playoffs is definitely missing a result or two. Apparently on the eve of the playoffs the entire Queens I divison standings were rocked by the overruling of some forfeits that put LIC back into the playoffs. As a result, the PSAL created some extra games and tiebreakers in Queens and my research is missing some games.............. Anyhow here is my best shot:
Queens I Tie-Breaker Round
February 14th:
Newtown (over) Cleveland
Bryant (over) Forest Hills
LIC (over) Bowne
1st Round
February 15th:
Edison (over) Newtown
Quarter-final Round
