Later today, the final hoops game of the Berkeley Carroll season takes place when coach Morgan Sevigny’s Lady Lions take on Martin Luther for the PSAA championship.

In what’s been a chaotic winter, fittingly it’s a makeup with the game originally slated for last Thursday at Long Island Lutheran. Due to another snowstorm that dumped over a foot of the white stuff in the metro area, instead it will be played at top seed Martin Luther’s gym at 4 PM this afternoon. They met once back on 1/22 with ML prevailing in the same building. But that was then. Now, it’s all on the line.

Can Sevigny’s five starters who all return next year upset the No.1 seed in enemy territory? They’ll need a big game from leading scorer Keyanka Bailey and good shooting days from Tess Salvatore and Sarah Paller. Defensive stopper Olivia Wilson and first-year starter Morgo Miller have contributed all season on both ends. It’ll take a yeoman effort defensively along with good execution in the halfcourt set.

Berkeley Carroll will need to be extremely disciplined staying out of foul trouble and limiting turnovers. Sevigny and assistant Manny will be limited in their options off the bench. If needed, Gianni LaTange could see some important minutes. However, it will largely depend on how well the starters handle the pressure. Are they up to the enviable task?
