WP/Pac big difference in fouls, any comments.
WP played full court man the whole game and PAC played zone the whole game. Refs were bad but WP made the game that way. Seemed like fouling was there strategy. They play an ugly ugly game.
thanks,, I though maybe Mayfield was being picked on
Any word on AHS v Brewster?

Could you give a little more info on the Pine Plains team? Im really surprised they beat Tuckahoe so handily..I know Tuck only has one returning starter but Wow ! what a beatdown!
Hawthorne Cedar should be thrown out of varsity basketball because they stink too bad..I see better 8th grade teams
