FROM KEITH GROLLER

Here's the breakdown of the 12 pools in the SportsFest "A-town Throwdown" boys basketball tournament which begins Thursday night.
I don't know much about the outside-the-area teams, but I expect Easton (Pool 1), CCHS (Pool 2), Liberty (Pool 3), Allen (Pool 4), Freedom (Pool 5) and Parkland (Pool 6) to win their pools. My other picks are Nazareth of Brooklyn (Pool 7), Springfield-Delco (Pool 8), Wilson West Lawn (Pool 9), Ridley (Pool 10), Constitution (Pool 11) and Reading (Pool 12).
Hopefully, from a local standpoint, Emmaus, Lehighton, Dieruff, Stroudsburg and Becahi will be in the mix as well for wild-card slots to reach Sunday's Sweet 16.
