The winner of the Class B LIC will meet the Section 1 vs. 9 winner on Wednesday at 4 p.m. in a regional final at either Dowling Sports Complex (if Southampton wins) or a location to be determined if Wheatley wins.

The Class C regional final will be played on a date to be determined, presumably Wednesday or Thursday, at Dutchess County Stadium.
