Dominic Toy is reluctantly counting down the days and the games. Chester’s 6-foot-5, 225-pound bull in the middle knows the end is near. He has his college ticket stamped for Connecticut, where he is projected to be a tight end. In the meantime, he is trying to close an amazing athletic high school career by getting something on the hard wood that he came inches from grasping on the football field: a District 1 championship.
Toy also knows his days of playing organized basketball are numbered.
Toy put on a little show for one of his future coaches Thursday night, blocking a potential game-winning shot in the waning seconds to preserve Chester’s dramatic 47-46 victory over visiting Chichester.
