-In a battle of Suburban Council heavyweights, Bethlehem edged Shenendehowa 48-45. The Eagles built a 12 point 3rd quarter lead sparked by a Michael Ortale slam off an unbelievable hustle play by Justin Barnes and Jake Laclair, but had to survive a late Shen rally for the win.

-The Bethlehem lead remained at 1 point, 46-45, with 0:17 left in the game and with Shenendehowa in possession holding for the last shot. T.J.
