St. Louis Park will open up on the road next week in Simley when section football playoffs begin, while Benilde-St. Margaret's will start at home after a bye.
The Orioles earned the No. 5 seed in Section 3AAAA. A win against Simley in the first round on Tuesday would earn St. Louis Park a match-up with undefeated top seed St. Thomas Academy on Saturday, Oct. 29.
The Red Knights got the No. 2 seed in Section 6AAAA and a first-round bye. BSM will take on either third-seeded Orono or sixth-seeded Park Center in the section semifinals on Saturday, Oct. 29, at home.
