2018 Boys Basketball State Championships Finish Weekend

The 2018 NYSPHSAA Boys Basketball Championships wrapped up this (Sunday) afternoon with a pair of games at the Floyd L Maines Veterans Memorial Arena.  The Class A crown went to Amityville from Section 11 with a 74-54 victory over Ardsley from Section 1.  In the Class AA Championship Liverpool from Section 3 recovered from a terrible start to post a win over Section 11's Half Hollow Hills East.  The final score ended with a Liverpool 71 - 65 victory. Liverpool was down 37-30 at the end of the first half.

Arena resulted in a move from long-time tournament home Glens Falls.
