This is how we got to a proposed Section 1 amendment that might eventually lead to the departure of Albertus Magnus, Ursuline, Leffell School and Keio.
A statewide vote tomorrow will determine the next step.

New: A New York section could ban private schools from NYSPHSAA state playoffs — Section One will review this Friday on moving forward with an amendment that would make 4 schools ineligible👀
The decision could potentially trigger a statewide shockwave to public vs private competition

Stepinac won the NYC CHSAA/PSAL "Undisputed Champion" title for the 2nd straight year by topping PSAL Champ Bronx Eagle 76-68. USC-commit Adonis Ratliff & Fordham-bound Hassan Koureissi each scored 24 pts. and helped the Crusaders pull away from a slim 58-55 lead to start the 4Q.
@_TomKeller Tappan zee girls basketball had to win against 2 private schools. They are state champs!!! When Ossining had their run, they had to win against the private schools just to get out of the section.
All these public schools who want to run from the smoke by making separate section away from “non-boundary schools” are cowardly to me. If you want to be the best, you have to beat the best. Simple as that. I applaud the public schools who aren’t afraid of playing anyone.
Tappan Zee caps off a remarkable season for @SecOneAthletics girls basketball, capturing the first state championship in program history on Sunday.
The Lady Dutchmen did it with the depth and perseverance that defined a season few expected could reach this height.
And @TZeeAthletics might just be getting started.
My video recap of Tappan Zee's comeback win over previously unbeaten Notre Dame of Utica - and how @rileychevrier became the second person out of Section 1, and first female, to win a state title as a player and now a coach.
