There’s little doubt that, over the course of time, North Schuylkill’s Lady Spartans basketball team is the best in the area.
On Friday night, before a small crowd spaced out in Pottsville’s Martz Hall, North Schuylkill reinforced its claim as the area’s best by putting away Jim Thorpe in an incredibly fast-paced Schuylkill League Championship, 71-63.
