Running thread for the 12 games over the weekend.
Bellwood-Antis girls looking to repeat.

Re: State Championship Thread
Guilfoyle boys in (for them) uncharted territory.
Average height on the starting 5: 5'10"-5'11". They've put in two herculean efforts and managed two victories by the slimmest of margins in the last two games. Unless the 3's drop at a high rate, size could be their downfall tomorrow.

I’d imagine they will be a favorite next year as well12HankQB wrote:Congrats to Bellwood girls repeat gold 66-57
Re: State Championship Thread
I believe one senior in the rotation, plus the best player in the state returning. I’d take them and let others have the field.CCDevil2012 wrote:I’d imagine they will be a favorite next year as well12HankQB wrote:Congrats to Bellwood girls repeat gold 66-57

Re: State Championship Thread
West Middlesex had a lot coming back I noticed from watching the lineups announced. I want to say McCort has a lot returning too and they gave Bellwood probably their toughest game in the entire postseason.

Re: State Championship Thread
Thing that bothered me the most so far was the announcers on PCN continually calling Sankofa Freedom Academy Charter a public school because they are from the Philly Public School league. What's the backstory on this "school"? Kenyan name, Kenyan Flag In their logo, African/Kenyan Tribe dressed representatives on the floor for their trophy presentation. Does Kenya booster this "school" or something?....Just curious.

"The term Sankofa is an Akan expression that is translated “Reach back to move forward”.

Well that would be an accurate statement. They can get students from anywhere within the city limits of Philadelphia.PortagePride wrote:Thing that bothered me the most so far was the announcers on PCN continually calling Sankofa Freedom Academy Charter a public school because they are from the Philly Public School league.
Sankofa Freedom is a charter in name, but different in practice than say Lincoln Park in Midland. So if everyone gets the public/private separation they want, Sankofa Freedom would likely remain in the PIAA.
