ADDISON COUNTY — The Otter Valley and Mount Abraham/Vergennes boys’ lacrosse team are opening their Division III postseason quests this week.

The 5-7 Otters earned the No. 3 seed and were set host No. 6 Fairfax (2-13) on Wednesday after the deadline for this edition. The teams split two games this season. If the Otters prevailed their most likely foe on Monday at 4:30 p.m. is No. 2 Montpelier (5-6).

The Eagles are 3-9 on paper but forfeited two games due to inadvertent use of an ineligible player. As a No. 5 seed they’ll visit No. 4 Green Mountain Valley (3-6) on Friday at 4 p.m., and a win would send them in to a 4:30 p.m. Monday game vs. top-seeded Stratton (6-4).
