February 4-7

The Friday game at Cedar Crest was postponed to Monday, there was the threat of icy conditions and games all over the area were being rescheduled as a result. I could see the point especially since we were going twenty-four miles on two-lane road but as it turned out the weather fizzled out and we probably could have played. You pay your money, you take your chances. Had lunch with Jenny and her mother on Saturday and spent Sunday at home which is more or less typical since Sunday is always the least eventful day of the week. On Monday we met at McCaskey for the trip north and the final bus ride of the season, perhaps it was appropriate that the miserable trip into Lebanon County was the last one. In Lancaster we're very lucky in that we are centrally located, all of our trips within our county are relatively close or at least involve highway travel. Whenever we go to Cedar Crest or Lebanon proper (and the two schools are about two miles apart) it's the exact same route on a dark two-lane road just about all the way. On this night the JV squad saw a four-game win streak ended, the varsity exacted revenge for an earlier defeat. We trailed by four after one period but fought back to lead by eight at the half. Cedar Crest hung tough but never came much closer than that, the final was 68-54. Jared Kumah had the big night with 22 points and Hasan Williams added 18 as the club improves to 10-11 with one game left on the schedule. We got home a little before 10:00 which gave me time to get a bite to eat and write this blog post. Tuesday is going to be a very busy day and it starts EARLY. Take care, thanks for reading.
