      <![CDATA[<strong>BY ADAM RONIS</strong>

St. John the Baptist junior center Christine Huber has committed to Rutgers. The 6-4 Huber led St. John the Baptist to the CHSAA state championship for the second straight season and its first Class AA Federation final. 

She averaged 17 points, 13.7 rebounds, 5.4 blocked shots, 2.8 steals and 2.7 assists. She had 19 points, 10 rebounds and 10 blocked shots in the CHSAA state final against Molloy (Queens). Huber can handle the ball well for her size and can shoot from the perimeter.

      <![CDATA[<strong>BY ADAM RONIS</strong>

The North Babylon girls basketball team was honored by Suffolk Legislator Lou D’Amaro (D-North Babylon) at the Legislature’s May 13th General Meeting for winning its second consecutive Long Island Class AA Championship. The team reached the Class AA state title game for the second straight season. A resident of the school district, Legislator D’Amaro presented the team and district administrators with Proclamations before the entire Suffolk County Legislature. North Babylon also received the New York State Scholar Athlete team award for achieving a cumulative grade point average of 91.85.

“I commend all of the players, coaches and supporting administrators who have combined educational excellence with athletic prowess to bring honor to the community,” Legislator D’Amaro said in a press release.  “I am proud to call them my neighbors and am confident that they will continue to represent North Babylon well in their future endeavors.”

      <![CDATA[<a href="mailto:darren.sands@newsday.com">BY DARREN SANDS</a>

GLENS FALLS, N.Y. -- *Yawn*!

It's a bleary-eyed start here for all of us in Glens Falls today as SJB is to take on defending champion Bergtraum. But this promises to be some exciting basketball. We'll be here with the updates.

<strong>UPDATE 12:14 --</strong> Bergtraum is out to an 16-5 lead at the end of the first quarter.

<strong>UPDATE 12:29 --</strong> SJB is down 34-10 with two minutes left in the half and running. They can't get any offense going against Bergtraum's fiesty defense which has their hands in everything. At one juncture, they turned it over on a shot-clock violation, no one seemed to have any idea that the clock was winding down.

<strong>UPDATE 12:34 --</strong> Score is 36-14 at halftime here in Glens Falls. 

<strong>UPDATE 1:03 --</strong> SJB went on a 10-2 run to start the third, but Bergtraum made two straight baskets and Krystal Parnell hit a three as the buzzer sounded and the score is 47-26 at the end of three.

It's a final: SJB falls to Bergtraum, 61-47. ]]>

St. John the Baptist broke into the USA Today Super 25 for the first time this season and is ranked No. 13 in the latest rankings. St. John the Baptist is 24-4 and won the CHSAA AA state championship for the second consecutive season after defeating Molloy (Queens), 42-28, on Saturday. St. John the Baptist beat then-No. 8 St. Michael Academy (Manhattan), 63-49, in the semifinals.

St. John the Baptist will play the winner of Bergtraum (23-0), ranked No. 2 in the country, and Rush-Henrietta (Section V) in the Federation championship on Sunday March 30. SJB beat Bergtraum in 2004 when Rutgers' Epiphanny Prince was on the team.]]>

      <![CDATA[<strong>BY ADAM RONIS</strong>

St. John the Baptist senior point guard Dani Iervolino had surgery Monday night at Lenox Hill in the city on a broken nose she suffered against St. Michael Academy last week in the CHSAA state semifinals. The bone was put back in place and the septum was straightened to open up her nasal passages. 

The doctor told Iervoilino she shouldn't play for three weeks. St. John the Baptist will play the winner of Bergtraum-Rush-Henrietta for the state Federation championship on Sunday March 30. Iervolino negotiated with the doctor to sit until Saturday. She wanted to get clearance to play or she wouldn't do the surgery. 

Iervolino helped lead SJB to two consecutive CHSAA state championships. She was integral to the Cougars winning the state championship last season and ending Christ the King's 17-year reign by being able to handle the pressure of Lorin Dixon, who's now at UConn. When Iervolino got hit against St. Michael, she never left the game. She played with the broken nose against Molloy in the final Saturday. The 5-3 Iervolino will play at Northeastern.]]>

<strong>Dani Iervolino (St. John the Baptist):</strong> Iervolino suffered a black eye and broke nose against St. Michael Academy in the CHSAA state semifinal. She took an elbow on the play, winced in pain and never left the floor or even requested a timeout after the play. She never came out of the game and scored 10 of her 15 points in the fourth quarter in a 63-49 win over the No. 8 team in the country, according to USA Today. She added eight assists. Even after the game, she didn't even know the severity of the injury. She had eight points and seven assists in a CHSAA state final win over Molloy (Queens).

<strong>Christine Huber (St. John the Baptist):</strong> Huber had 19 points, 10 rebounds and 10 blocked shots in the CHSAA state final against Molloy as SJB won its second consecutive state championship. She had 22 points, 12 rebounds and four blocked shots in the semifinals against St. Michael Academy.
 
<strong>Eugeneia McPherson (North Babylon):</strong> McPherson scored 31 points in a Class AA state semifinal win over Corcoran and scored 32 points in the championship game, a 59-54 loss to Rush-Henrietta, which has won three consecutive championships.
