BOYS 5A FINAL — 8:00PM 🎙️ Game 3 of our Friday Tripleheader. Prime time at Mohegan Arena. #2 Crestwood vs. #1 Abington Heights 🕗 8:00 PM 🎧 Listen Live: NEPAHoops.com Abington Heights is chasing a fourth straight District 2 title. Crestwood hasn’t won the championship since 2021 — when they were awarded the title via forfeit after COVID protocols left Abington Heights without enough eligible players following the semifinal. This time? No circumstances. No asterisks. Just head-to-head for the 2026 crown. Crestwood is led by senior Ayden Agapito (@aydenagapito25), alongside freshman Miles Metz (@MilesMetz29), senior Connor Wagaman, and Gio Barna — a group that can score in bunches and pressure defensively. Abington Heights & @JokerCat12 counters with senior leaders Jordan Shaffer (@jordanshaffer) and Andrew Kettel (@andrew_kettel14), supported by senior Finn Goldberg and sophomore Cooper Manning, plus a deep, experienced rotation that’s been here before. History. Redemption. A four-peat on the line. 🎙️ On the Call: Scott Mackinder (@Scott_Mackinder) Brian Coyle (@bcoyle10) 📊 Live Stats: Tom Robinson (@tomjrobinson) — tracking every possession live from inside the arena.

🎓👀 Seth Maxwell '17 of Abington Heights playing with the @GLeagueWarriors! #NEPAhoops 🏀 @AHCometsBBB

📝 2026 6’4” SG/SF @JordanShaffer0 (@AHCometsBBB) spaced the floor with his range this weekend, hitting shots off movement and punishing closeouts with strong drives. He rebounded well and flashed his length as an underrated shot blocker. Big piece heading into AC.

📝 2026 5’11” CG Andrew Kettel (@andrew_kettel14) of @AHCometsBBB / 17U HGSL Dempsey is a dynamic, aggressive point guard who puts constant pressure on the defense. Loves to play fast, gets others involved, and continues to grow as a reliable 3-point shooter. 📲 HC @tadempsey4
