For my money, the Mecca of PA HS hoops.
Here at Martz Hall in Pottsville, where Bishop McDevitt and Lewisburg will battle for a spot in the PIAA 4A semifinals. Tip at 7.
🩵🖤 STANDOUTS in the PIAA Elite 8.

FINAL: @McD_athletics 41 @carroll_hoops 36
Crusaders, powered by big time clutch games from Pat Denisco and Ethan Hammer, advance to the 4A state quarterfinals on Friday. Terrific game.
They will take on Lewisburg.
After Carroll ties it up by making a free throw and missing the second, Patriots grab their own board.
But @McD_athletics gets in transition and Pat Denisco with a patient make with 1:00 left to put Crusaders back up 35-33.
HALFTIME: Archbishop Carroll 21 Bishop McDevitt 17
Senior Pat Denisco keeping the Crusaders in this one. He has 11.
Only one non-jumper made between the two teams so far.
We’ve reached round 2 of the boys basketball state bracket.
I’m here in Reading, where @McD_athletics takes on @carroll_hoops for a trip to the 4A quarterfinals.
Big time seasons from these Team PA hoopers! MVP & All-Conference honors for the 2025-2026 HS season.
Congrats to:

Bishop McDevitt has done a good job working for the open three against the Big Spring zone and has hit many of them. Here’s Patrick Denisco hitting his second trey of the quarter. At the half, McDevitt leads 30-21. @BishopMcDevitt
