Girls basketball in the Lower Hudson Valley

North Rockland tournament

December
26

One of the biggest surprises/disappointments of the season is North Rockland. North Rockland (0-4) is one of six LoHud schools without a win yet. Weird to see from a team that’s historically one of the best in Class AA.

The Red Raiders just haven’t found the basket consistently. Amanda Babcock has gotten some points but no one has scored more than 12 points in any game. That’s how they lost 35-34 to John Jay.

They’ll pick up a couple W’s once league play begins. But they’d rather not wait that long.

Enter the North Rockland tournament, where they’re hoping to break the O-fer. You know they’ll be playing hard in front of the big crowds on their home turf. The first round is Monday and it concludes Tuesday. They meet TZ at 7. The other first rounder is Nanuet vs Nyack at 5 p.m.

    The Nanuet/Nyack game should be a good one

  2. on vacation

    i agree. i’ll take nyack in that one, although it should be a close game. north rock will pick up its first W vs. TZ and then lose to nyack in the final.

  3. a fan

    Great games, Nanuet won against Nyack 53-31. Tappan Zee won 48-41.

  4. Smokey

    what’s going on with this North Rockland team?

  5. rockland fan

    they are down talent wise this year.
    they have had a large talent pool for 10 years,
    and this year and the next few will be lean.
