Chichester’s boys took a big step towards reversing a long drought on Tuesday night. To finish off the job, they’re going to have to end one more.
The Eagles haven’t won a Delaware Valley League title — solo or shared — since 1993, the program typically an afterthought in the small league of Delco public schools, which has traditionally been dominated by Chester, with Penn Wood nosing in there on occasion.
Now it’s Chichester in the drivers’ seat with two games to play, courtesy of a 62-51 win over Penn Wood on Tuesday night at Chichester, but it’s far from a done deal.
“We’re loving it, but the job’s not finished yet,” senior point guard Mazen Sayed said.
