Who Will Win The Boys Triple A Semifinal: Colonie Or Shaker?

It is the best time of the year for high school basketball with their own version of March Madness. The boys triple A will always be close as the game I will be watching intensely will be Shaker vs Colonie in the battle for Colonie rivalry in the semifinals. It should be an awesome game. Below is my quick take on this as seen in The Times Union:

The Triple A Boys' basketball semifinals playoffs might not be as predictable as one would think on Thursday at Cool Insuring Arena. Defending champions Green Tech is the best team but CBA is playing its best basketball of the season and defending at higher level than earlier in the season. Tempo is going to decide the outcome. Colonie proved in their quarterfinal win over Shen that they won't be an easy out despite and up and down regular season. Shaker lost only one game in the Suburban season, and they have a lot of answers offensively. I would look for two competitive games for the right to play in Sunday's Championship game.

MJ and I had on Colonie head coach Greg Davis earlier today right here on Big Board Sports 104.5 The Team ESPN Radio. Below is our full interview with him enjoy.

I can't for the next five days as it will be wall to wall coverage of the Section II high school playoffs. Bring on the March Madness at both the Cool Insuring Arena and Hudson Valley Community College.
