BOYS BASKETBALL NOTEBOOK: Confident Lansdale Catholic moves to 3-0

By MIKE CABREY

mcabrey@thereporteroinline.com

The difference between last season’s Lansdale Catholic boys basketball team and this year’s was made apparent in the fourth quarter of its 43-37 non-league home win over William Tennent last Thursday.

A three-point play by junior Corey Kirk put the Crusaders up 30-28 with 5:52 remaining, and while Tennent tried everything to reclaim the lead, LC held off the Panthers to head into Philadelphia Catholic League play 3-0.

“I think we’re definitely more confident, cause I think last year, last two minutes, close game, I don’t think we would win that game,” Kirk said. “Our mindset was, ‘Oh, maybe we’ll win this game.’ This year, I think we know we’re going to win that game. We have a good attitude. We know we’re going to come out on top at the end.”

Lansdale Catholic has already matched its win total from 2011-2012 – the Crusaders’ first under coach Ed Enoch – when it finished 3-19. Last year, it took 16 games before LC collected its third win, a 44-38 victory over Monsignor Bonner which also doubled as the Crusaders lone PCL win.

“The kids really bought into the offseason stuff, they’ve worked hard,” Enoch said. “We got a great group of seniors that really make practices, our practices are better this year. We’re more competitive. And they’re great kids.”

Wagner a big help for Souderton

Brendan Wagner finished with a team-high 20 points as Souderton opened its Suburban One League Continental Conference slate with a 54-42 win over North Penn last Friday.

Scoring, however, is not the only thing the 6-foot-8-inch junior is looking to provide the Indians.

“I’m just trying to do what I can do just help the team and everything,” Wagner said. “However many points I can score, rebounds are really important to me, cause if I don’t get the boards, it’s just extra opportunities for them. We can’t have that.”

Against the Knights, Wagner collected eight of the first 10 points during Souderton’s game-ending 16-0 run that turned a 42-28 deficit early in the fourth quarter into a 12-point victory.

For Wagner, it was his second straight game in double digits, having posted 13 in the 51-43 non-league win over Methacton last Tuesday.

The victory over North Penn was the third straight over Continental rival for Souderton. It was also the Indians’ 10^th straight at home and their 11^th consecutive at home against conference opponents.

CB West boys win outright SOL Continental title

Derek Dyer helped the Central Bucks West boys basketball team claim the outright Suburban One League Continental Conference title as his layup with four seconds left lifted the Bucks to a 49-47 win over rival Central Bucks South Friday (Ready the game story here).

I was able to get some video of the championship-clinching basket, although it's cut a little short due to the fans in front of me standing up.



And after a South's last-second heave missed the mark, here was the scene afterwards as the West students celebrated the Bucks winning the conference.

BASKETBALL: North Penn boys down Upper Dublin in districts

The North Penn boys basketball team got back in the postseason win column for the first time in nine years Friday night, the No. 8 seed Knights rallying from a 10 point second quarter deficit to best No. 25 Upper Dublin in the District One Class AAAA first round.

It was the first playoff win for North Penn since it beat Avon Grove in the 2002 district first round. The Knights also gave Ron Hassler his first district win at the school since in his third season on the sidelines. Below is Hassler's postgame comments.



The victory Friday was North Penn's seventh straight and sets up an interesting rematch with No. 9 Bensalem Tuesday at home in the second round. The Knights struggled to get anything to go through the bucket when the faced the Owls in the SOL Challenge Jan. 22 in Abington, finishing with a season-low in points as they fell 43-26. Stakes are a little higher this time, with the winner qualifying for states, while the loser has to reach the PIAA Tournament through ninth-place consolation.

Sean Brooks, who finished with a game-high 17 points, talks in the video below about the win over the Cardinals.
