The Weather was bad, but they still had some games...
P.I.A.A. BOYS CLASS (AAA) QUARTERFINALS:
General McLane 73 - Oliver 53
General McLane moved on to the Western finals with a convincing 73-53 victory against Oliver on Friday night. The Lancers jumped out to a 22-8 1st quarter lead and never looked back. Oliver would never get any closer. The inside play of 6'4 forward Shawn Walker was a major difference. Oliver had no answer for the big man. Walker scored 31 points mostly from underneath the basket many coming on great assists by there lightning quick guards Drew Astorino
and Bob Stauffer. Astorino scored 17 including three treys. Oliver was lead by senior Tyler Arnett who fouled out with 20 points and 4 treys. Arnett tried to carry the team upon his shoulders but the rest of the Oliver team had a rough night shooting. General McLane will now play Tuesday night for the right to go to State College against either Susquehanna Township or District #10 rival Grove City. That game was snowed out and will be played on Saturday in Somerset. Oliver finishes there season with a record of 17-13.

Upper St. Clair 48 - Bethel Park 40
In a battle between South Hills rivals with a spot in the (AAAA) Semifinals at stake, the Panthers raced out to a quick opening quarter lead and never looked back as they finally beat Black Hawks in their third try by eight points at North Hills High School.
