Cailyn Schall and Sophia Stover each scored nine points but Shikellamy rallied in the fourth quarter and defeated Jersey Shore, 44-40. The Braves tied Jersey Shore (14-4, 7-2) for first in the HAC-I and both teams have one league game remaining. Jersey Shore can win at least a share of its third straight crown if it wins its finale at Midd-West and Shikellamy heads to Central Mountain.

Central Mountain fell to Selinsgrove, 51-25. The loss drops the Wildcats to 8-8.
