Is it feasible to call a team that made it to the state playoffs in the 5A ranks a season ago a bit of a surprise just a couple of weeks into this brand-new season? Especially when they graduated all of four players off said team? If so, this 2024-25 Manheim Central Barons outfit might […]

The Keystone Division games have started and teams are starting to form gaps between each other, but there are a lot of games left as we are only in the middle of December. Let’s take a look back at the week to see the past performances and where the teams are headed in the upcoming […]

It happens every year. Without fail, there will always be a storyline that emerges from the first few weeks of the high school basketball season come each December. Sure enough, 2024-25 would be no such exception to this virtual rule of law. By now, it’s been well documented about how the Lebanon Cedars have been […]

In Ephrata’s road win at Conestoga Valley on Thursday night, Cooper Truskey became the Mounts’ program all-time leader in three-pointers hit. The senior guard currently sits at 118 made triples after he eclipsed the previous high of 117 set by Brent Burkholder who held the honor since 2001. Congrats to Cooper (Cover photo courtesy of […]

(Josiah Hayes- LLHoops Player of the Game in ELCO win over Donegal)   The calendar tells us it’s December 13th. Maybe it’s still a little early to go and start throwing around the hyperbolic language, especially considering how divisional play hasn’t even started in some instances. Then again, it’s probably just a matter of who […]

Coming into the year, we knew it would be this way. We knew that the version of the Columbia Crimson Tide boys’ basketball team that last played in the state tournament against Math, Civics, and Sciences at Norristown High back in March wouldn’t resemble anything like the 2024-25 edition of the Tide. For starters, well, […]

In years previous, it’d be fair to say that the Manheim Township Blue Streaks boys’ basketball program was rather aggressive shall we say in their schedule-making. To be sure, seeing Township play game after game, day after day, to begin the regular season slate almost seemed to be an expected norm of sorts. This year […]

Keystone basketball has finally tipped off, which means that the season is upon us again as all 8 teams got the chance to play non-divisional games before division play begins this week. Let’s look back at all the contests and the outlook ahead for each team. Mechanicsburg (3-0, 0-0) Mechanicsburg started back up where they […]

At this time a year ago, things couldn’t have been going much better for the Pequea Valley boys’ basketball program. After just the first full weekend of the season last year, the Braves wasted next to no time asserting themselves and injecting themselves into the conversation of feel-good stories by going to Tulpehocken in back-to-back […]

(Matt Knight. LLHoops POG In Twin Valley Win Over Northern Lebanon)   If you’ve been following along with the litany of preseason prognostications that have surrounded the start of the 2024-25 Lancaster-Lebanon League boys’ basketball season, there isn’t really a reason to be shy nor bullish on the prospects that make up the cast of […]
