Congratulations to the Brandywine Bobcats girls basketball team, who won their third regional title Thursday night over Bangor 59-44.

The No. 2-ranked Bobcats’ win was no surprise as they captured their first regional title since 2000.

It’s great to see a hometown team succeeding on the court. With so much tragic and negative news lately – locally, statewide and even around the world – seeing these young women excel is a bright spot for the Brandywine school, the Niles community and sports fans alike. Whether you follow Brandywine athletics or not, it’s assuring to know the school is turning out talented students and athletes who will no doubt continue to use the lessons learned on and off the court in their futures.

Good luck to the Bobcats as they continue using their talents to make our community proud.
