The SCC Scheduling Committee has determined the new divisional alignment for the 2018-19 season for baseball and softball.  The alignment will be in place for one season and was based on the team's records over the past two seasons in its 32 "counting games."   Each SCC school play 16 counting games each season. Those 16 games are used for seeding purposes for the league's postseason tournament.  There will be eight divisional games, six crossover games and two more counting games as determined by the scheduling committees.
