MANSFIELD — For the second straight year, the Tioga County YMCA in Mansfield is hosting a weekly youth basketball league, in which several West teams are competing.
After having three teams in their inaugural season last summer (NP-Mansfield, Cowanesque Valley and Williamson), two additional teams have joined this year (Troy and Galeton).
Games are played on Sundays, starting at 4:30, and teams/players have the option to participate in group drills prior to the first game of the evening.
While the focus of the league is to give younger players a chance to play over the summer, Director Ruth Hermansen has also recruited several North Penn-Mansfield varsity players to volunteer their time by officiating, which can serve as Community Service hours for them.
Results from Sunday's games:
NP-Mansfield 17 Cowanesque Valley 16 (2OT)
Troy 43 Galeton 13
Cowanesque Valley 29 Williamson 23
NP-Mansfield 46 Galeton 10
Troy 39 Williamson 25
