After winning a district championship, the Scranton Prep boys basketball team broke back into the latest edition of the Super 16 Countdown at No. 7.
The Cavaliers won the District II Class 4A Championship over Valley View over the weekend, marking the 6th straight title for the Cavs.
They'll face Susquehanna Township Friday in the opening round of states - after some well-deserved celebrating.
"There's a legacy here," Scranton Prep junior guard Gavin Bednarz explained. "We've won six in a row. So you just want to get it for the guys before you, get it for the guys next, get it for the guys on your team, get it for your schoolmates, your classmates, everyone really. We're playing our best basketball at the end of games right now and I think that's good for us going into the state tournament against tougher opponents. Really tough teams down there and I think we'll be ready."
"These guys are resilient," Scranton Prep Boys Basketball Coach Andrew Kettel added. "We had a lot of peaks and valleys through the season and they stayed true to each other. They stayed true to our program and what we believe in. This is a huge goal for us and we have a week to get ready and we will, but we're going to enjoy this. These kids deserve this. They worked really hard and I couldn't be more proud of a group."
