Hershey Races Out To Early Lead, Flashes Remarkable Balance As Trojans Make Quick Work Of Lebanon In Monday Night Nonleague Affair

Hershey Races Out To Early Lead, Flashes Remarkable Balance As Trojans Make Quick Work Of Lebanon In Monday Night Nonleague Affair

January 16, 2024 Andy Herr

At first glance, it might be easy to just flatly assume that Hershey and Lebanon boys’ basketball programs might not have all that much in common with one another. After all, aside from the most elementary of examples being that of physical differences with one school residing inside the confines of Dauphin County while the […]

Lampeter-Strasburg Continues To Build ‘Confidence’ As Pioneers Dismantle Chambersburg In Hoops For Harmony Showcase, Score Arguably Lancaster-Lebanon League’s Premier Nonconference Win To Date

January 14, 2024 Andy Herr

Arguably, one of the chief takeaways that most anyone will make mention of when asked about the benefits of playing a high school sport during their formative years figures to be the intrinsic value of which it can offer. Within that, perhaps the vital being the ability to compartmentalize and handle the effects of both […]

Lancaster Country Day Ratchets Things Up As Cougars Turn Over Pequea Valley, Turn In Key Section Four Road Win

Lancaster Country Day Ratchets Things Up As Cougars Turn Over Pequea Valley, Turn In Key Section Four Road Win

January 12, 2024 Andy Herr

Throughout the first month of this season, one thing that has appeared to bubble up to the surface in the Lancaster-Lebanon League boys’ basketball world on the whole is that every race, yes, in every section, appears to be extremely deep and competitive. In fact, it really doesn’t matter if you’re talking specifically about Section […]

Northern Lebanon Gets Glimpse Into Its Future As Vikings Lean On Underclassmen Efforts, Knock Off Route 22 Rival Annville-Cleona In Battle Of Upcoming Section Four Foes

January 9, 2024 Andy Herr

While conventional wisdom might’ve told you that Monday night’s rivalry affair between Annville-Cleona was nothing more than a “nonleague” scrap between two foes hailing from different sections within the Lancaster-Lebanon League, the truth of the matter was that there was far, far more to it than just that alone. Again, the proverbial elephant in the […]

Troyer(s) Shine As Hempfield Holds Down Penn Manor, Vaults Firmly Into Early League Tournament Picture As Black Knights Protect Homecourt In Crucial Section One Win

January 6, 2024 Andy Herr

Technically, when Penn Manor paid a visit to Hempfield’s Buchanan Gymnasium to take on the Black Knight on Friday night, the best that the victor could hope for entering the weekend would be for second place behind the current division leader in the clubhouse, Cedar Crest, with almost one full turn of Section One play […]

Donegal ‘Finds A Way’ As Indians Reenter Win Column With Staunch Defensive Effort, Pass Critical Northern Lebanon Road Test To Remain In Section Three Hunt

January 5, 2024 Andy Herr

It’s one of those things that is as universal and accepted like the sun rising in the east and setting in the west. No matter what the sport, no matter what the level of play, there are always going to be those certain places above all others that coaches, fans, and players alike almost always […]

New Year, Same Ol’ Barons. Manheim Central Completes Another Second Half Rally As Barons Charge Past Stern Garden Spot Challenge To Remain Unbeaten

January 3, 2024 Andy Herr

While the first couple of days following the start of a new year are most often reserved for making resolutions and that of the like, please don’t take issue with neither Garden Spot or Manheim Central boys’ basketball if they happened to enter 2024 with the same exact intentions as they had ended 2023 on.

ELCO Responds To Adversity, Both Macro And Micro, As Raiders Author Stifling Fourth Quarter Performance To Vault Past Conestoga Valley For Third Place In Eastern York Holiday Tournament

December 31, 2023 Andy Herr

If you are one to prescribe to the notion of character being best defined not by what you do in your best moments, but rather how you respond when you get knocked down, then boy oh boy. Was Saturday night at Eastern York the place for you to be. You see, while some may have […]

Warwick Opens Defense Of Lititz Flooring Holiday Tournament Title As Warriors Ride 41-Point Second Half Past Lancaster Catholic, Draw Old Section One Foe Penn Manor In Championship Tilt

December 30, 2023 Andy Herr

Before we start, we (I) swear this will be the last time this topic is ever brought up moving forward. Here it goes. Last year, one of the oddest factoids in Lancaster-Lebanon League basketball lore was finally put rest once Warwick defeated Dallastown to win their own Christmas for the first time since 2007. Pretty […]

December 29, 2023 Andy Herr

Full disclosure. While this is a site primarily focused almost exclusively on that of Lancaster-Lebanon boys’ basketball above all else by and large, it’s not as if we are totally incapable and devoid of recognizing and appreciating good hoops overall when we see it. In that regard, has anyone been doing it better than Berks […]

December 28, 2023 Andy Herr

Before we begin, let’s start off with a question, shall we? If we were to rewind and go all the way back to 2016, who is only team to win an L-L boys’ basketball section in the division where Lampeter-Strasburg resides other than the school with the initials of L-S outright? If you said the […]

Clippers’ Depth, Trademark Runs Prove Lethal As Chester Tops Lancaster Mennonite In Battle Between State Champions Old And New

December 24, 2023 Andy Herr

  The last time we saw the Lancaster Mennonite Blazers, they were at the Giant Center in Hershey last March rounding out their finest hour in the form of a relatively decisive victory against one the perennial state power brokers of all-time, Aliquippa, for what would prove to be Lancaster Mennonite’s first-ever state title in […]

Ephrata Inserts Its Name Into Section Two Discussion As Mounts Display Complimentary Aspects, Stymie Donegal In Intriguing December Clash

December 21, 2023 Andy Herr

  At first glance, one may think there isn’t all much that connects Donegal and Ephrata together. For starters, there is roughly 30 miles that separates the two campuses from one another. Or, in a slightly obscure and different form of measurement and distance, about “half a Lancaster County” away. Beyond that, while one program […]

Well-Balanced Crimson Tide Score Critical 30-Point Road Win At Lancaster Country Day As Columbia Presides Over Section Four Standings Heading Into Holiday Break

December 20, 2023 Andy Herr

Without question, one of the worst things you can use to describe a team is to call them “frontrunners.” Simply put, for those who are hardwired with that of a competitive nature, them’s fightin’ words. Hard to argue too when you consider that the moniker suggests that teams are only able to thrive when the […]
