In Boys B League Playoff Curling Bethlehem and Holy Cross are the #1 seeds heading into the single elimination draw format.  They receive the top seeds as a result of winning their respective pools during league play. Holy Cross enters the playoff round having gone undefeated in league play at 4-0-1.  Bethlehem went 4-1 during league play and was tied with l'ecole de canadienne francoise and Aden Bowman with identical 4-1 records.  A three way tie at the top of the standings in pool 1 is proof that playoff victories will not come easily in a 12 team field with stiff competition. Bethlehem and Holy Cross will receive the first round byes as will Tommy Douglas and l'ecole de canadienne franoise who finished second in their respective pools.
