DOWNINGTOWN >> The West Chester East boys basketball team lost an average of 45 points per game from 2020 to 2021, thanks to the graduation of Andrew Carr and Tym Richardson, from a squad that won the Ches-Mont League and District 1 Class 5A championship.
But that was merely a bump in the road for the Vikings.
The 2021 Vikings finished with the best record in the Ches-Mont League National Division, and clinched a spot in Monday’s Ches-Mont crossover game against American Division champ West Chester Rustin, with a decisive 61-55 win over host Downingtown West Saturday at Wagner Gymnasium.
