Bedford Academy upsets Westinghouse in Brooklyn Boro Playoffs
Every year, the Public School Athletic League includes a couple of A Division teams in its Boro Playoffs, but those schools are typically eliminated by the AA Division teams in the first round. Not this year.
The Bedford Academy Panthers (14-0) upset the Westinghouse Warriors (7-7) with an incredibly close 64-62 victory in front of a capacity crowd at the Stuy Dome in Bedford Stuyvesant Tuesday night.
“I think we get doubted a lot because we’re an A team,” said Bedford Academy senior Trevis Wigfall. “We beat a lot of good teams, but we don’t really get the credit that we deserve. To come out here and beat an AA team, we’ve been asking for this all year, so we had to step up.”
