District 3 Playoffs

4A: #3 Wyomissing 42, #2 Northern Lebanon 39 – Semifinal – The Lady Vikings trailed from the 2nd quarter on, but kept battling until the final buzzer. The persistant effort was led with 15 points from Olivia Shutter, with the senior scoring 12 in the 2nd half. Haley Sheroky scored 12 points and Kasey Weimer joined her in double-figures, scoring 10 points. Northern Lebanon (21-5) will host Delone Catholic on Thursday to determine who will finish 3rd in District 3.

1A: #4 Veritas Academy 43, #9 Our Lady of the Cross 31 – Consolation Semis – After losing to Veritas Academy by 36 points at the beginning of February, this game on paper looked like it could be lopsided. However, the paper did not account for the heart the Lions would show when they took the floor at Warwick. Though, it was a loss, OLC battled hard and kept the game within reach throughout. The effort was led by Riley Hatzfeld as the senior scored 27 points, a performance that included five three-pointers. OLC (14-9) finishes their 2nd season, having won the first District 3 Playoff game with last week’s double OT win over Covenant Christian.

District 3 Playoffs

1A: #3 New Covenant 48, #7 Lancaster County Christian 47 – Semifinal – In what was a total team effort, the Flames won at the buzzer courtesy of Qynne Demler’s drive to the hoop.

Additionally, Moriah Simniskis scored 14 points and Kai Hershey had 9 rebounds. Freshman Alayna Zimmerman became an unsung hero in this game, as she overcame illness to provide solid play and served as inspiration to her other seven teammates. New Covenant (18-3) will next play at the Giant Center on Thursday against Linville Hill.  Gametime: 2:45. pm. Video of game-winner

6A: #2 Dallastown 37, #3 Lebanon 35 – Semifinal – It was a close game throughout, but Dallastown was able to hold off the Cedars in the closing moments of the game. In the 4th quarter, Kailah Correa attempted to lead Lebanon to victory, scoring 8 of her team-high 13 points. Lili Harrison finished the game with 10 points. Also scoring for Lebanon were Olive Brandt with 7 points and Nina Harrison with 5 points. Lebanon (24-4) will play for 3rd place in District 3 on Wednesday night when they host Central Dauphin.
