Boys: 1) Penncrest vs. 2) Lower Merion (7:45 PM)
Buckle up, because this one might need more than 32 minutes to settle. When the Lions and Aces met in January, it took not one but two overtimes to settle the score, a 75-71 Penncrest win on its home court, with senior wing Theo Gladue playing hero, hitting a 3-pointer to send things to the second extra session. Even though Penncrest has a couple district titles in the last decade, it hasn’t won the Central League since 2010; Lower Merion, meanwhile, has nine titles in that span, including six of the last eight, as Gregg Downer’s program continues to be the class of the league.
