POTTSVILLE BOYS BASKETBALL

2001-2002 Season

12 Wins - 13 Losses
9 Wins - 4 Losses League

  With high hopes and expectations from fans and coaches of capturing the Schuylkill league Championship, the boys struggled through the season with some very close losses to Blue Mountain and Shamokin.

   "We definitely got off to a rough start and our schedule was full of challenging games. It was really hard for us to pull it together sometimes especially the first time we played Blue Mountain," junior Alex Miranda said.

   The game was very close the whole time and even had to go into overtime. In the end though, Blue Mountain pulled though with a two point victory over the crimson and white. " I would have to say that Blue Mountain was probably our hardest and most exciting game. We just couldn't seem to get enough points on the board that night," senior Mike Toomey said.

   Shamokin served another two disappointing losses for the Tide. The team lost both games by just three points and their dreams of capturing a championship within the Schuylkill League were shattered.

   The squad did manage, however, to obtain a spot in district competition although they were eliminated in the first round. "We really wanted to win the Schuylkill League, the seniors especially. We really tried but it just didn't end up the way we had wanted," senior Mike Govern said.
