Just about set for tipoff. Poughkeepsie, which will play in AA and reached the sectional final last year, is 11-0 coming in. Peekskill is the five-time defending A champ.

End of third quarter: Poughkeepsie leads 52-48. Peekskill scored the last seven points of the quarter, which ended with the Pioneers having three putback chances roll off the rim.
In the fourth: Peekskill’s 14-2 run briefly gave the Red Devils the lead, 55-54. Now it’s going back and forth. 5:06 left, Peekskill up 59-58.
With 3:04 left: Poughkeepsie up 66-59 after a 7-0 run. Gause has 35 points.
1:19 left: Poughkeepsie leads 69-64.
In the last half minute: Carter had a breakaway that would have cut it to 70-68, but missed the dunk, and Gause went the other way for a layup. With 20.1 seconds left, Poughkeepsie up 71-67.
Final score: Poughkeepsie 75, Peekskill 67. Gause had 39 points.

The city of Newwwwwburgh will be dancing at the Mount! Sending all the Pkfinest back across the bridge. No way we lose.
Scott,
It’s interesting that you say that Poughkeepsie might be a slight notch below New Ro, since that is what has been said by others in the past. Despite that, Poughkeepsie beat New Ro last year and twice the year before that. I think that Kevin D. also was taken by surprise by Poughkeepsie’s successes against New Ro. New Ro is tough, that’s for sure, and (if they meet again) I hope Poughkeepsie can keep its winning streak going.
NFA loses by 3 to Maginn today at Siena. No problem though we still smacking PK.
NFAalltheway did you even know that Whitaker was in fact a legit D1 recruit? Actually don’t respond, we all know the answer. Thats why it wasn’t surprising when you didn’t respond to HR’s post.
Stop talking smack, you are giving NFA a bad name. Act like jmoose instead of a loud mouth tool.
nfaalltheway doesnt know nothing and when pok does win he will probly blame it on the refs…...
NFA lost to Maginn today. Very surprised about that. Maginn hadn’t played anyone – and NFA lost by 4. Saturday will be interesting for sure.
