D6 AAA sucks #7 in the state last years runner up has to win D6 only one AAA school goes on to states if they have one bad game good night

[Heaven&Hoops]

If Johnstown can't win D6-AAA, do they really deserve to go? AAA is very weak this year. The trojans are head and shoulders above everyone else.

I know the LHAC is weak in Basketball pretty much every year when compared to the state. But this year is really bad.

It is difficult to even watch some of these teams play.

LH is weak this year. Johnstown is clearly the class of the league followed by Central Cambria, then Westmont and McCort. There just doesn't seem to be many very good basketball players out there. The kids on these teams play hard but where are the good shooters and the scorers.
Some teams are brutal to watch. Have you seen Cambria Heights and Richland?
