Boys Basketball Senior Night To Be Televised

MSG Varsity will replay Tuesday's basketball game later this week.

MSG Varsity will be telecasting Tuesday night's boys varsity basketball game against Northport High School.  The game is scheduled to tip at 6:15 p.m. at West Islip High School, but MSG won't air it until Friday, Feb. 17 at 7:30 p.m.

Chris Hillier, president of the WI Hoops Club, said they'd like to pack out the gym to support all the senior players and cheerleaders.   Appropriately enough for Valentine's Day, there will be a brief ceremony beforehand so West Islip (1-16) can hand flowers to their mothers. 

He also mentioned that two students will be selected from the crowd to compete in a halftime shootout, which will be also be part of the telecast.
