Looking back it was kind of a disappointing ending to the local boys basketball season.

After so much excitement all year, most of our teams went way too quickly in the state tournament that just ended on Saturday night at Penn State.

Kudos to Easton for at least getting to the middle Saturday of the state tournament.

Just one District 11 squad cracked the top 10 of any classification and it was it was a team from Schuylkill County -- Pine Grove.
