Girls Basketball: Seahawks Set for North Point Rematch

The South River girls basketball team defeated Leonardtown Wednesday night.

The South River girls basketball team topped Leonardtown 46-26 Wednesday night to set up a region final against North Point for the third year in a row. The No. 2 Seahwaks will battle No. 1 North Point on Friday evening in a scene that is all too familiar to the team. "We lost to North Point in regional final the last two years," South River coach Mike Zivic said. The Seahawks are coming off a successful season with a 22-3 record and a victory over Arundel in the county championship game. But a win over North Point still stands between the team and a berth into the regional championship game.

Girls Basketball: Seahawks Preparing for Postseason Run

The South River High girls basketball earned a first round bye and a No. 2 seed in the MPSSAA tournament.

For the past two season the South River High girls basketball season has come to an end the same way—with a loss to North Point in the region finals. This year, the Seahawks (20-3) will look to avenge those loses—but to get there they will first have to tackle some county opponents. South River is fresh off a victory over Arundel in the county championship game and has earned a first round bye along with a No. 2 seed in the Class 4A girls basketball tournament. The team will face the winner of the Meade-Broadneck game on Monday in the second round of the tournament. "It’s tough because you have to be ready for both teams so you are basically prepping for two opponents," said six-year coach Mike Zivic. During the regular season, South River…
