The regular season is now a fond memory for boys and girls soccer teams and several Aroostook County squads appear to be playoff bound. The final countable day for boys and girls soccer was Tuesday (yesterday), with the preliminary playoffs set to begin Friday and Saturday, Oct. 23 and 24. The final standings could change, as they will not be released until after Tuesday’s final games.
The Caribou boys and girls squads, as well as the Limestone-MSSM and Fort Fairfield girls squads will qualify for the postseason.
