"GET IT TO SHOOP" as Harrisburg takes down Berks Catholic

One thing you can say about a Harrisburg Cougar boys basketball game is they might have the most unpredictable players around.....   just when you think you have them figured out, someone else spoils your entire game plan....    That's what seemed to happen Friday night as Harrisburg took on Berks Catholic....

Harrisburg gives CD East the business!!!!

All I can say is WOW!!!!!   This was a day every player and fan was looking forward to....  The Harrisburg Cougars vs the CD East Panthers has become a nice rivalry since 2008 - 2009 season when East had ex Cougars Jonathan Breeden and Terrence Kellum to go along with Demond Bates and Amani Glenn as they walked into Kimber Gymnasium and handed Harrisburg their first home lost in about 6 years....  Since then, it seems as if every East team approach to a game vs Harrisburg is a confident approach....   The PLAYERS seem to really believe they can win....   Today seemed no different as East kept this game close for 2 and a half quarters....    But then the Cougars AWOKE......

How to land a College Scholarship.....

These days it seems as though every parent and every player already think they have all the answers to be a College player or Pro player.....   I'm here to tell you that I don't know everything, but I do have a clue as to what it takes.... 

I speak with College coaches on a regular basis on all levels because I love to help kids get an opportunity to play at a higher level....  Only problem is most kids don't do their part...  It makes it very difficult to be a "recruitable" kid if you dont have all of your "stuff" together!!!  

Here's a few things that can help a young player out in these tough times as a player.....

Harrisburg Cougars vs York Bearcats tonight at 7:30pm in Harrisburg

Harrisburg fights from down 18 to beat Lancater McCaskey

All I can say is "WOW".....  In the first game at Kimber Gymnasium, it's going to be hard to top that one....   Harrisburg coming in ranked #5 in the State vs Lancaster McCaskey ranked #6 in the State, this exceeded the expectations and then some.....

Now, just so everyone understands, I predicted that Harrisburg would win this game in overtime by 4 points...

Harrisburg ended up winning this game 99 - 94 in OVERTIME!!!!

Steelton starts off 0 - 2 as they fall to Berks Catholic...

When you look at this Steelton team on paper, all you can say is "WOW".....  They have tons of athleticism and talent plus there's some guys with a great deal of Varsity experience.....  So what's the problem?   I'm not 100% sure but I think I have an idea......

Indians over CD in the Hoffman Ford Finals...

The Susquehanna Indians are on a roll as they took down Steelton on day 1 and then Central Dauphin in the Finals of the Hoffman Ford HS Boys Basketball tournament 48 - 37....   This was a very low scoring game due to a combination of solid defense and sloppy ball play...

CD handles State Ranked Berks Catholic with deep threes...

This is a new year for the CD Rams....  No more Devin Thomas, No more Nick Seefelt....  so people may be asking "Who in the world does CD have this year?" .....   What they have is guys who were used to doing all the dirty work, now ready to lead these Rams to a successful season.....

The Indians hand Steelton 1st loss to kick the season off....

The highly anticipated game between two cross town rivals was in full effect Friday night....  All of the Alumni from both schools wore their colors proud as their respected teams took the floor for what was expected to be a battle to the end....   Susquehanna had their cheering section, louder than ever as Steelton had Roller legend Eddie Albert leading the way cheering for his team......   Once the game began, all of the fans would not be disappointed.......

This weeks Predictions for local teams....

The season is finally here and there are some very very good and intriguing matchups....   Some of these matchups could end up being an eventual District Championship game later in the season....   It's early and these teams have a lot of improving to do, but let's take a look at them now....
