After a number of upsets throughout the Eastern Pennsylvania Conference and the Colonial League last week, it remains evident as we enter the district basketball playoff season that there is a lot of compatibility among the teams in the Astound TV Network viewing area. Also, there was a number of outstanding individual and team efforts over the last 10 days during both leagues’ tournaments.
None more impressive (and surprising) than the sixth-ranked Northampton boys team, who upset the top three teams in the EPC to win its first league championship since the early 1970s and take over the #1 seed entering districts.
Can their success continue?
We’ll ask them when Head Coach Matt Scholl and members of the Konkrete Kids will be on this Thursday’s live ATVN SportsTalk show at 7pm to talk about their magical playoff run and the road ahead in the District XI playoffs.
The program featuring Northampton will air live on the Astound TV Network and will be live-streamed for free on our YouTube channel (type in “Astound TV Network” in the “search,” then click on our live links). Astound video customers will be able to watch this program at any time through ATVN On-Demand.
