For 16 minutes, there was a chance that Radnor’s momentum might finally come to an end in the Central League semifinals, Springfield (Delco.) hitting some big shots to hang around in a raucous Radnor gym, going into the half down only seven.
But it was false hope for the Cougars, who became the latest victim to a Raptors squad that’s been as good as advertised all season long. Jackson Hicke and Co. put together a dominant third quarter to make it clear there would be no upset bid, pulling away for a 65-34 win on Saturday afternoon.
“They are a machine,” said Kevin McCormick, who’s been the Cougars’ head coach since 1994. “They’re definitely in the conversation [for best Central League teams during my tenure], and they should be proud of it, they’ve stuck together and they’ve got good things ahead of them.”
