LAKEWOOD, OH — The St. Edward Eagles are the number one seed in the Strongsville district heading into the Division I basketball playoffs. The team shared its bracket setup via Twitter, saying it would start postseason action on March 3.

The team's first game will be at 7 p.m. at St. Ed's. The Eagles will play the winner of Parma versus Rhodes. The district championship game would be played March 10 at 7 p.m. at the Wolstein Center.
