PATRIOTS: DELCO'S SOLE SURVIVORS IN PIAA PLAYOFFS

When Penn Wood knocked off Bartram Wednesday night, the reality set it: the Patriots are Delco's sole survivors in the state playoffs.

Well, sort of.

You've got the Penn Wood Patriots in the Class AAAA bracket and the Archbishop Carroll Patriots in the Class AAA field. Penn Wood beat Bartram, 78-53, at O'Hara, and Chester bowed out of the AAAA tournament with a 62-49 loss to Williamsport.

It seems like both teams have their stiffest tests yet in this weekend's quarterfinal round. The Lansdowne Pats will face Pennsbury in a Saturday tilt that is without a site or time. The Main Line Pats will see league rival Neumann-Goretti at Archbishop Ryan at 7 p.m. Friday.

chris i love your blog, but your statement about Pennwood and slighting Carrol is unfair...i know you don't cover carol a lot because the rest of their league is not in delco but two teams remain

Read the full post before you comment. It's a play on words, because both Penn Wood AND Archbishop Carroll are the Patriots.

Get it?
