GAME OF THE WEEK: Upper Dublin 49, Cheltenham 46 (OT) - After three quarters nothing was settled at 34-34 and the game was destined for an overtime. It was a match-up between conference rivals and Upper Dublin was also feeding off the the loss to the Panthers in last year's district playoffs. The Cards shot 20-28 from the free throw line and hold off the conference leaders. Andrew Carber had 18 points in the win.

PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Zach Dolton (Phil-Mont Christian) - He has done it all season for the Falcons and the junior's scoring spree did not stop this week. Dolton dropped 24 points against Jenkintown and 27 points against Morrsiville to help his father-coached team improve their record to 11-7 and 7-4 in the BAL. Having such an savvy scorer like Dolton makes the Falcons a scary opponent in the District One Class A playoffs. If he shoots lights out, it could be season over for higher seeds.
