BASKETBALL: Derby boys are county champions
10:00am Thursday 21st February 2013 in Sport By Bury Times Sports Reporter
DERBY High School have added the Greater Manchester County Cup to their Lancashire Cup trophy.
The local boys triumphed despite being a player down, coming through their pool in second place after winning three out of four games, losing only to Urmston who they met again in the final.
In a thrilling final they avenged their earlier defeat by winning 18-14.
Meanwhile, the school is eagerly awaiting completion of its sports hall. It is hoped it will be ready for the autumn term when Derby High will continue their quest to become a centre of excellence for basketball, netball and football.
