Andy’s Take
With An Eye Towards The Postseason, Cocalico Passes Penultimate Nonconference Test As Eagles Shake Off Sluggish Start, Explode Past Oley Valley Wednesday Night
January 15, 2026 Andy HerrComing into this game last season, life was a little different for the Cocalico Eagles boys’ basketball team. Last year, 364 days ago as a matter of fact, Cocalico boarded a bus bound for Oley Valley High School with their post-season aspirations being anything but a surefire bet that you could reasonably bet the mortgage […]
Northern Lebanon Remains Primed For Playoff Push As Vikings Top Annville-Cleona, Embark On Critical Week Of Games After Navigating Through Early Season ‘Storm’
January 13, 2026 Andy HerrIt might be hard to reconcile, but we’re actually here. Yes, if you look ahead just far enough, you’ll see that the finish line is in sight. Truly, where does the time go? But for a season that is just now starting to make the turn towards home, there’s still plenty of unwritten stories left […]
Warwick Continues Scintillating Pace As Warriors Notch Eighth Win A Row, Take Down Penn-Trafford, Set Sights On Promising Homeward Stretch Following Prior ‘Heart-To-Heart’ Conversations
January 10, 2026 Andy HerrThere are road games and then there are road games. Like the one that the Penn-Trafford Warriors took part in on Friday. Yeah, almost the very textbook definition of a R-O-A-D-T-R-I-P. Capital letters indeed essential for added emphasis. As the crow flies (or the jet flies more accurately), the distance between Harrison City, Pennsylvania, the […]
Hempfield Retains First Place Status As Black Knights Snatch Road Win At Lebanon, Continue Section One Title Chase With McCaskey Showdown Looming Friday
January 8, 2026 Andy HerrOn Wednesday night, two teams came together to play a basketball game at Lebanon High School. On one side, a team sat in four-way tie for first place in their section title race despite coming into the night while riding a five-game slide, all while owning a 3-8 overall record to their name. In […]
York High Completes Second Consecutive Business Trip Into Lancaster County As Bearcats Continue To Pillage L-L Foes, Knock Off Hempfield Following (Another) Barnes’ Big Day
January 3, 2026 Andy HerrEach year, these early days of January are most always reserved for New Year’s resolutions. Typically, while these are often goals set on an individual basis, so too can they apply to groups. Like, say Lancaster-Lebanon League boys’ basketball. Throughout the month of December, it’s admittedly been a bit of a rocky road for the […]
Despite Difficult Start To The Season, Donegal’s Steely Resolve Shines Through As Indians Stare Down East Pennsboro, Fall Just Short In Quest For Elusive First Victory
December 30, 2025 Andy HerrAdmittedly, there haven’t been more tougher starts to a season experienced that what the Donegal Indians boys’ basketball team was forced to endure prior to the beginning of this 2025-26 campaign. And that’s even taking aside their 0-7 record tabulated thus far in coming out the other side of the Christmas holiday with an […]
Barnes’ 38-Point Day Paves The Way As York High Bests McCaskey In Sunday Special To Take Latest Chapter In Age-Old Rivalry, Claim Third-Place Honors In Hagelgans & Veronis Tornado Holiday Classic
December 28, 2025 Andy HerrIn 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 […]
In Microcosm Of Season To Date, Dallastown Responds To Early Adversity As Wildcats Erase Second Half Deficit, Ride Roberts’ Big Night Past Penn Manor To Championship Game Of Warwick Holiday Tournament
December 27, 2025 Andy HerrSo, 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 […]

Lancaster Country Day Receives Good Tidings Found In Victory Prior To Christmas Holiday As Cougars Erase Second Half Deficit, Snap Two-Game Losing Skid With Hard-Fought Triumph Over Schuylkill Valley
December 23, 2025 Andy Herr“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 […]
Behind Book And Witman’s Big Nights (And Some ‘GWP’s’), Manheim Central Scores Key December Section Win In Defeating ELCO As Barons Aim To Regain ‘Rhythm’
December 20, 2025 Andy HerrThe 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 […]
Following Senior-Led Team Meeting, Manheim Township Responds By Knocking Off McCaskey As Blue Streaks Inject Themselves Into Section One Leadership Discussion
December 19, 2025 Andy HerrCome 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 […]
Solanco Continues Sizzling Start As Golden Mules Add Another Early Pelt In Knocking Off Garden Spot, Keep Pace With Divisional Leaders
December 18, 2025 Andy HerrWhen 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 […]
Despite Tough Start To The Season, Columbia’s ‘Character Win’ Over Pequea Valley Provides Added Boost As Crimson Tide Hope To Continue ‘Turning The Corner’
December 17, 2025 Andy HerrIn 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 […]
Young Dutchmen Hang Tough, Fall Victim To Lancaster County Christian Fourth Quarter Surge As Lions Nab Key Road Victory At Annville Cleona For Themselves, CCAC On Monday Night
December 16, 2025 Andy HerrIt’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 […]
