Danny Rosenblum and Charlie Thornton walked off the court at Unionville three years ago, not needing the reminder that better days lay ahead.
It was Feb. 26, 2020, and Radnor had just lost a District 1 Class 5A playback game to end its season. For a group that played two freshmen heavily, a 15-win season felt ahead of schedule. They fell in the quarterfinals as heavy underdogs to eventual champ West Chester East, then were summarily dismissed in their bid to get back into states.
But had you told either Rosenblum or Thornton then what would be in the program’s future, you would’ve been met with confident affirmation.
“Honestly, I would’ve believed it,” Rosenblum said Monday, after the 24-0 Raptors wrapped up the program’s Central League title over Lower Merion. “I trust these guys so much and we’ve been through so much together. This has been our goal the entire time.”
