Hills West-Bellport game suspended after incident
An incident involving the parents of a Half Hollow Hills West player forced the cancellation of last night's Bellport at Hills West boys basketball game late in the third quarter, according to Colts athletic director Joe Pennacchio.
After contact between two players, parents of one of the players involved ran onto the court, according to Pennacchio, who attended the League IV contest.
According to the Hills West AD, the referees announced, "Game over at this point," which would mean a 52-33 victory for the unbeaten Colts. Pennacchio said Section XI executive director Ed Cinelli told him the game was official and the stats would count.
Neither Cinelli nor the two coaches returned calls to Newsday for confirmation last night.
