The postseason is here, and this is what it’s all about.

Still standing in the Savannah area this week at home, Tuesday soccer has Islands hosting Mary Persons and Savannah Arts hosting Drew Charter, and Wednesday baseball has Benedictine hosting Cambridge. On the road, Tuesday soccer sends Benedictine to Marist, and St. Andrew’s tennis on Tuesday and baseball on Friday both hit the road as they continue their playoff push. These are the teams still playing, still fighting to move on.

Across the Savannah area, teams are stepping into win-or-go-home moments. Records don’t matter now. Matchups do. Execution does. Composure does. From the pitch to the court to the diamond, this week will test who’s ready to move on and who’s ready to go home.

Here’s your playoff schedule. Stay with it. These are the games that define seasons.
