Pavilion and York have become quite the area rivalry, especially in girls basketball.
On Monday night in Letchworth, it was on full display as fans filled the house and kept the noise level at maximum volume through nearly all 32 minutes of hoops to see which Class C champion will move forward in the postseason.
Last year it was York that prevented Pavilion from winning a second consecutive Section V title (Pavilion, the C2 champs this year now have two trophies from the past three seasons) after Pavilion beat York twice in the regular season. This year, York prevailed in regular season play but on Monday, when it mattered most, the Gophers were golden, coming out on top 40-28.
They next play East Rochester to see which Class C team will represent Section V against Section VI in the Far West Regional championship game. The game will be played Wednesday at Rush-Henrietta.
Tonight, Lauren Kingsley was dominant scoring 16 points. Kylie Conway scored 10 points and Karlee Zinievich scored even.
