Indiana County's playoffs will get underway Thursday with Game 1 of the best-of-three semi-finals series. Regular season champion Blairsville Kovacik Insurance (14-6 league, 14-8 overall) is the #1 seed and will face #4 seed Indiana Legion (10-10). Defending league champion and 2010 Region 7 runner-up Homer City Post 493 (11-9) earned the #2 seed and will take on #3 seed Marion Center (10-10), winners of 5 straight to end the season. The winners will advance to play a best-of-three finals series for the league championship and a berth in the Region 7 Tournament.
Blairsville finished with a strong 2nd half, and will enter the playoffs with a well-rested pitching staff. Indiana Legion and Blairsville split their regular season series, 2-2. Homer City will face a red hot Marion Center team that at one time was 5-10 and at the bottom of the league standings. This marks the 3rd straight year the teams have met in the first round of the playoffs. Homer City won the regular season series 3-1.
