Skins Go 1-1 in District One Tournament; Season Ends

Mt. Vernon, Iowa -- OK, that is where I'm typing from, so ...

The webmaster has been in denial after the May 14th loss to Christopher Dock. Two close games went the home team's way, and the second was particularly devastating. Up 23-17, the Skins saw Dock score the next eight points to win, 25-23. Game three went to Dock as well. Neshaminy defeated CR-South on May 12th. The season ends with an outstanding 10-6 overall record and a district tournament win. All in all, a terrific year. Congrats to the players and the coaching staff. All that remains is the team's annual banquet June 1st at Philadelphia Biblical University. The District One final is tonight at CR-South where Pennsbury is likely to beat Pennridge. Dock and William Tennent will play in the 3rd-place game -- also at CR-South -- to see who will advance to the PIAA State Tournament.

Skins Finish Off with Bensalem Win, Pennsbury Loss

Langhorne, Pa. -- Neshaminy defeated Bensalem, 3-0, on senior night April 30th to send an outstanding senior class off with a bang. The game scores were 26-24, 25-7 and 25-19. The regular-season finale on Monday, May 4th was not as successful as state-ranked Pennsbury showed its talent with a three-game sweep of the Skins. Game scores were not available. The next piece of big news for Neshaminy will not happen on the court. District One tournament pairings are due out later tonight and will be posted this evening (provided the webmaster gets the information from his son). This link to the Courier Times talks mostly about Pennsbury and William Tennent but provides some insight into the seeding of the tournament:
