USL Playoffs Set

Posted on September 22, 2008 by Kartik Krishnaiyer

The USL-1 Regular Season concluded this past week and the playoffs are set. The Puerto Rico Islanders (pictured above) have won the Regular Season title, and gained the #1 seed in the playoffs. This gives the road weary Islanders a bye in the first round and a chance for now to focus on the CONCACAF Champions League.

Here are the other matchups

#2 Vancouver vs # 7 Minnesota

#3 Montreal vs #6 Seattle

#4 Rochester vs #5 Charleston

The two leg first round series begin Tuesday and conclude Sunday.
