Scholastic Roundup: It’s time to do this for the Kids
Rich Kosik admits he grew up when New York City – and Brooklyn in particular – was the Mecca of Basketball.
“Sadly, over the past two decades that title has gradually dwindled,” said Kosik, who is the Student-Athlete Advocate for the Public Schools Athletic League (PSAL). “There are many contributing factors, but it’s been visibly evident by anyone with the knowledge of ‘how it was’, when they viewed any number of PSAL games over these recent years.”
Kosik says one of the factors is that back in the day there were 180 to gradually 200 high schools – now there’s over 300.
