Yes, this is a fishing blog. However, I also double as a Head Boys Basketball Coach for Lincoln Leadership Academy Charter School in Allentown, PA. As you may have already read in my biography, I also serve as the Athletic Director and Dean of Students at Lincoln Leadership. We are a small "A" school in District XI. This is our 4th year of existence and only our 2nd year as members of District XI of the Pennsylvania Interscholastic Athletic Association (P.I.A.A.). We finished 12-12 (13-13 overall including district playoffs) last season and barely made the district playoffs. However, this season we finished 16-6 (17-7 overall including district playoffs) and made it to the semi-final game vs. Pius X.
Earlier in the season, Pius X defeated us 81-51. We didn't take that "ass-whoopin" very well to say the least. It made us tougher, stronger, hungrier and more willing to stand together as a team. Yes, our season ended at the hands of Pius X. However, we were better prepared and lost a tough one this time. With 4:00 minutes remaining in the game, we held a 3 point lead. Unfortunately, we could close and lost 48-40. Proud of my guys though. Here's a video sharing some highlights from our season. Enjoy .... - steeler
p.s. The link is directly below this sentence. It may be tough to see for some reason. High school basketball is awesome. Just check out the fan support from our students that traveled all the way up to Stroudsburg High School to cheer us on. Amazing!
