Betten’s Standout Season Earns Him Player Of The Year Honors
Bursting onto the scene as a freshman three years ago, Manchester junior forward Gavin Betten has gotten better in each year of his high school career. This season was his best yet, as the big man averaged a double-double, led the Squires in almost every major statistic and was a key factor in Manchester winning its first Three Rivers Conference title since the 2014-15 season. When you put all of these together, Betten is an obvious choice for the 2024 Times-Union Boys Basketball Player of the Year.
Squires Clinch Share Of TRC With Win Over Maconaquah
Undefeated in Three Rivers Conference play so far this season, the Manchester boys basketball team had a pivotal game against Maconaquah on Friday night. The stakes were simple: win and clinch a share of the TRC title with a chance to win it outright next week. Lose, and hope for a win on Tuesday for a share. It came down to the final minute, but the Squires were able to take home the gold with an 80-75 win.
