GAME OF THE WEEK: Methacton 53, Phoenixville 51 - In the Pac-10 "Final Four" Playoffs Phoenixville almost made the Warriors' brilliant work through the regular season meaningless by pulling off the upset. However, like good teams do, the 20-3 Warriors willed themselves to a win and a shot against Perkiomen Valley in the league title game. The Warriors Zach Jenkings hit the winner shot with three seconds left on the clock.

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK: Josh Johnson (Norristown) - Sometimes because the Eagles get so much production every one of their starting five, not one player stands out. Some days it is Luke Kelly, some days it's Jahbri Hargrove, but lately it has been Josh Johnson. The 6-6 Johnson has turned into a scoring machine for the Suburban One American Conference champs. He had 19 points versus Wissahickon and 20 against Chetlenham this week.
