A word about PIAA Basketball Playoffs

By Delcohoops.com Staff

We are very fortunate to have 13 Delco High School teams competing in the PIAA State Championship playoffs. It certainly makes Delaware County the leader in high school basketball. However, it can be very confusing to keep up with the teams, their games, dates, times, etc.

While our pages are primarily following Boy’s basketball we are now including the Girl’s in the playoff schedules and articles through the end of the playoffs.

In an effort to make it a bit easier we have two ways of viewing the contests.  The easiest is to go to our Schedule page.  There you will find all playoff games involving Delco teams listed by date and then by time.  Locations of the game are also shown.  All games are played at neutral sites and some are quite a distance from Delaware County. This is also where you can see which game(s) we will be broadcasting.

The second, more complete picture, can be found by the PIAA State Championship logo that appears on the top right sidebar of this page. That will take you to a page listing all FULL brackets where a Delco team is still contending.  Once a bracket no longer has a Delco team competing (elimination) we will no long post the bracket.

On a final note, your Delcohoops.com broadcast team had a terrific day yesterday covering three of the four District One finals.  Two of those finals involved a Delco team: Garnet Valley (girls) and Sun Valley.  Both won their games and titles.  However the 6A boy’s game was possibly one of the most thrilling games and finishes we have ever witnessed and took place in front of a crowd of 7,000 die-hard fans.  We have posted the 2-minute call by our terrific Play-by-play announcer Dave Burman as he calls the final second of the first overtime period.  Enjoy!
