One of the great annual traditions of our \u201cSportsTalk\u201d program occurs this Thursday, when we have local coaches and media experts on our show for a roundtable discussion on the Lehigh Valley\u2019s local league tournaments.<\/p>\n
With district\/regional\/state-wide tournaments expanding ever so often now in every sport, it\u2019s one of the few remaining weeks in which the entire Lehigh Valley is focused solely on the teams within the region\u2014and it\u2019s one of the most-watched shows (and frequently stirs up heated debates) on the calendar for the viewers in the market.\u00a0 We examine both the girls and boys tourneys in both the Eastern Pennsylvania Conference<\/a> as well as the Colonial League<\/a>.<\/p>\n Joining Keith Groller<\/a> and me will be multiple league-winning former head coach Megan Dellegrotti, along with current head basketball coaches Joe Stellato (Freedom HS) and Eric Snyder (Catasauqua).\u00a0 Everyone will be giving their thoughts on the regular season and the league playoffs to-date along with making predictions, giving insights and \u201ckeys\u201d for all of Friday\u2019s championship games\u2014all of which will be broadcast on RCN-TV (check out our broadcast schedule page<\/a> for teams and airtimes).<\/p>\n Keith already made waves last week when he said the Colonial League Playoffs should be renamed the \u201cBangor Slaters Invitational\u201d (as the Slaters have been in the last four title games while winning three of them\u2014one more than any other team has accomplished this century. They also have the best record of any Colonial League team by far).<\/p>\n So tune in to the show this Thursday, live from 7-8 pm, or catch the podcast at rcn.com\/atvn\/sports-talk<\/a> and let us know your basketball opinions, questions and predictions. Be sure to email us at rcnsportstalk@rcn.com<\/a> right now and tune in for our panelists\u2019 responses!<\/p>\n In the meantime, here\u2019s a look at our recently broadcast games to get you ready for the Lehigh Valley\u2019s \u201cChampionship Night\u201d coming up this Friday on RCN-TV!<\/p>\n
