DALLASTOWN FINISHES SECOND 

IN PIAA CLASS 6A​​​​​​

     Dallastown's girls came up one game shy of a state championship after falling, 54-33 to District I champ Upper Dublin in the Wildcats first-ever PIAA state championship game March 20, at the Giant Center.

     The Cats fell behind 9-0, but came back and cut the deficit to 15-11, but Upper Dublin's 3-point shooting would be too much.

     Still it was an incredible season for Dallastown's girls.

     The Wildcats earned their trip to the title game after a thrilling 36-35 win past District 6 champ Altoona, in Tuesday's semifinals at Chambersburg.

     Freshman Denyla Handy dropped the winning basket with 5.5 seconds to play, sending the Cats to the state final.

     Dallastown blitzed District 7 champ Canon-McMillan, 54-39 in the quarterfinals after defeating Emmaus, the No. 2 team from District 11, 68-65 in overtime win in the second round.

     They opened the PIAA Class 6A tournament by hosting Spring Ford, the seventh place team from District 1, and coming away with a 50-41 victory.

     Best of luck ladies. Whatever happens, thank you for making us all proud.

         The ladies earned their trip to states by placing second in the District III 6A playoffs, reaching the district championship game for the third straight season.

     The Wildcats dream of a second consecutive district title came up short after falling to Wilson, in overtime, 42-37 in the February 26 championship game, at Manheim Township High School.    

     

​      Dallastown's boys capped their season with a three-game winning streak after topping Governor Mifflin 59-51, closing with a 9-13 record.
