Falcon Boys Make Basketball Playoffs for First Time in Decade
The Elmira High School boys basketball team has made it into the playoffs for the first time in a decade, finishing the season with a record of 15-10.
The Falcons secured the No. 13 seed in the OSAA state playoffs, earning a home game during the first round.
Senior Easy Armstrong said it’s nice to be able to enjoy success during his final high school season.
“It feels like there is an added layer of success on the season because it has been so long since we’ve had this much accomplishment,” Armstrong told Falcon News. “I’m really glad we were able to have this much success, especially after how hard my tenure has been.”
Senior team captain Carsen Adams expressed a similar sentiment.
“It feels really good to make playoffs my senior year, and the fact that we’ve had so many struggles only makes that feel better,” Adams said.
The Falcons will host the Corbett Cardinals (9-17) at 6 p.m. Tuesday.
