ACCHS Christmas Tournament Continues Tonight


Last night's games:

5:30PM Pocono Mountain West (4-1) defeated Notre Dame Green Pond (5-3) by a convincing 68-43 score. Despite being smaller, the scrappy Crusaders won the battle of rebounds. But both teams were missing a lot. But it is hard to match the sheer athleticism and speed of Pocono Mountain West.

7:30PM Freire Charter (2-6) as annihilated by ACCHS (8-0), 79-56. Senior Jay Vaughan was unconscious in the first half, the team had 11 from beyond the arc, with 5 coming from Vaughan. By the time the first half was over, he had 23 points, and Coach Dennis Csensits rested him most of the second half. Dat Lambert had 13, including two from downtown. He also had 4 assists, 3 steals and three rebounds. Nick Filchner and Chad Kratzer had excellent games, but I neglected to get their point totals. Central only scored six points in the final quarter.

Tonight's games:

5:30PM Consolation Game between Notre Dame and Freire Charter.

7:30PM Championship Game between Pocono Mountain West and Allentown Central. - Will discipline, stingy defense and accurate shooting trump blinding speed, size and sheer athleticism? We'll find out.

The Morning Call's premier sports journalist, Keith Groller, covered this game and will have a detailed report. This is just a fan's take.

I said yesterday that I'd be handing out autographed pictures of myself for $25. I had no takers, so I'm increasing the price to $100.

Since your autographed picture has risen in value I want one, but I hate waiting in long lines.

Who needs socialized stadiums and arenas? The best games in town are in high school gyms. Love this stuff.
