September 26, 2013 CSL--preview of weekend games (from CSL website)
SUSPENSE ABOUNDS IN CSL's TOP DIVISION........weekend games should bring clarity Games being played in the CSL First Division this weekend should bring clarity to what is otherwise a big question mark on which team will win the league title and which teams will occupy the remaining three berths in the playoffs leading to the CSL Championship Final at Niagara Falls on November 3. Suspense abounds at the top of the standings with Kingston FC, York Region Shooters and Toronto Croatia the three remaining candidates for the First Division title and this means a lot of interest in the Toronto Croatia vs. York Region Shooters clash set for 9 pm at the Hershey Centre in Mississauga on Sunday. Kingston are expecting to come away from Nelson Stadium and Burlington SC with three points in their game also on Sunday, an earlier 5 pm start. There’s no lack of anticipation either in the upcoming post-season championship games with five teams having qualified for the First Division playoffs. Kingston FC, York Region Shooters, Toronto Croatia, Brampton City Utd and SC Waterloo are in, while of the remaining teams, London City will almost certainly be added as the weekend games unfold. But Windsor Stars, Astros Vasas FC and Serbian White Eagles have not yet been eliminated. In the CSL Second Division, the following six reserve teams have qualified for the playoffs, with two teams still to be added: Niagara United B, London City B, Toronto Croatia B, St. Catharines Wolves B, Brampton City Utd B and SC Waterloo B.
