HAMPTON, PENN HILLS TO MEET IN CRITICAL CONFRONTATION
The recent bone-chilling weather forced some of the earlier district basketball games to be bumped to Wednesday.
While the dangerous chill continues outside, the action on the court heats up in the chase for first place in Section 2-5A boys basketball.
Penn Hills (6-7), Kiski Area (7-6) and Hampton (9-6) are all fighting for first place heading into the second half of section play.
The Indians are 6-1 in the section, the Cavaliers sit at 5-1, and the Talbots begin a big week at 5-2.
On Wednesday, Hampton visits Penn Hills at 7:30 p.m. in a game you can view here on Trib HSSN.
In their first meeting of the season, the Indians edged the Talbots, 46-40.
The big week for the Talbots continues Friday when Hampton is home to Kiski Area.
Kiski Area’s home game against Indiana (3-5, 6-9) was also postponed Tuesday and will be made up Saturday.
