Final spotlight on Top 67 players in Delaware high school boys basketball

When the DIAA Boys Basketball Tournament rolls into the Bob Carpenter Center, it always delivers.

A sellout crowd roared through both semifinals on March 11, with fourth-seeded St. Georges knocking off No. 1 Dover 63-57 and second-seeded Howard gritting its way past No. 3 William Penn 54-45.

The seats were filled and the intensity was high again for the championship game on March 14, as Howard turned up the defensive pressure during a 12-0 run in the third quarter to defeat St. Georges 60-46 for the school’s fifth state boys basketball title.

Experience often matters, and Wildcats coach Rahsaan Matthews Sr. knew this could be a special season because his roster was loaded with nine seniors.
