TOP REBOUNDERS AT THE ARENA: 2025‼️👊
“Defense wins championships,” but rebounding wins possessions. Whether it’s limiting second chances or creating them on offense, controlling the glass is often an overlooked key to winning.
Here are the top rebounders from this year’s District 2 finals at Mohegan Arena:
1️⃣ Mario Matrone (Sr., Holy Cross) – 12 REB
2️⃣ Pedro Lugo (Sr., Scranton) – 11 REB
3️⃣ Logan Fanning (Jr., Old Forge) – 10 REB
Even in tough losses, owning the boards kept teams in the fight. These players made their presence felt.
