  In terms of royalty amongst the ranks of the central Pennsylvania high school basketball landscape, you’d be hard-pressed to find a pair much more qualified than these two. Between them, they own a grand total of 16 District 3 championships. Beyond that, they are two of the most legendary, much less winningest programs ever […]

So, what did you get for Christmas? After all, it was just the other day. Hopefully there was something nice waiting for you all gift-wrapped and whatnot sitting there under the tree. Hopefully nice for you personally, but not everyone was looking for something all that materialistic, mind you. No, especially not the Dallastown nor […]

Howdy y’all. From LLHoops HQ, we wanted to take a moment to wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and happy holiday season. We sincerely hope you’ve been enjoying the coverage you’ve come to expect from the site in years’ past during this first, initial month of the season. While we all miss Dell […]

“What are you gonna do now?” While not necessarily the specific line that they have internally inside their own walls per se, that largely felt to be the prevailing theme from the outside chatter when it came to discussing the 2025-26 edition of the Lancaster Country Cougars. And frankly, like it or not, that outward […]

  As I sat down to write about Coach Joe Klazas, I kept coming back to a quote from my good friend and former teammate Chris Markel.    “He was and is a winner,” said Markel, a Class of 2009 standout guard, when asked to describe Coach Klazas.    Chris is unequivocally right. Simply put, Klazas is […]

Lancaster Mennonite continued their hot start to this season by defeating Devon Prep, last year’s 4A state champion, by a 60-47 final count Saturday night at home. Although Devon Prep made a charge inside the second half to get somewhat within reach, Mennonite was largely able to keep the Tide at arm’s length for the […]

The month of December is always a fun one around here when it comes to the world of high school basketball. Sure, aside from a Captain Obvious moment to mention how the 12th month on the calendar is always the first month of the hoops slate starting in full bloom, one of the better features […]

LLHoops is pleased to announce that we are starting up our livestream coverage this weekend with a tasty matchup between two of the best programs on the eastern side of the state in Devon Prep visiting Lancaster Mennonite on Saturday night.   Devon Prep, last year’s 4A state champion, visits the outskirts of Lancaster city on […]

  Come the middle of February, this is exactly the place where everyone aspires to be. It might not come with necessarily all the glitz and glamour of some spacious building that can host a variety of events like concerts and such, but to all the boys’ basketball teams that call the Lancaster-Lebanon League their […]

  When you’re in the middle of a title chase, style points don’t necessarily matter all that much. Sure, it’s great to have an average margin of victory that makes you feel all fat and happy, but those can sometimes be nothing more than empty calories. And while section play only just commenced around the […]

In years past, this matchup probably would’ve been glossed over without much in the way of fanfare. Not that it was anyone’s inherited fault, mind you. Short of relitigating all the intricate details when it comes to detailing this matchup – this game within the series particular – let’s just cut to the chase and […]

It’s the third full week of December. It’s been a few days (literally) since section play around the Lancaster-Lebanon League officially commenced. A big chunk of everyone’s respective resumes thus far is attributed to that of the legwork done in the non-con portion of the slate. We’re still a week out from Christmas. And we’re […]

This past week saw the start of section play officially commence around the Lancaster-Lebanon League. Typically, that would be the most newsworthy tidbit that the week would usually offer. However, especially at the tail end of the week in particular, the L-L was fortunate enough to see some key milestones be reached from both those […]
