The Upper St. Clair Boys Basketball team hosted rival Mount Lebanon tonight in a highly-anticipated section matchup. The Blue Devils came into tonight's contest ranked #1 in the WPIAL in Class 6A, while the Panthers came in ranked #3, and both teams were tied for first place in Section 2. Upper St. Clair jumped out to a hot start, leading Mount Lebanon by six points after the first quarter. The Blue Devils would chip away at the Panther lead and eventually tied the game towards the end of the fourth quarter, but the Panthers held on for a 44-39 victory. Brett Meinert led the way in the scoring department for Upper St. Clair as he netted 14 points. The Panthers now move to 9-3 (3-0) on the year and are in sole possession of first place in the section. They will look to follow up tonight's win on Friday when they will travel to Canon-McMillan for a matchup with the Big Macs. Tip off is scheduled for 7:30 pm.
