Conestoga gained a measure of revenge, reversing the result of lats year's District 1, Class 3 A title game with a 2-0 shutout of Downingtown West, to capture the crown this year.

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.
