Columbia boys basketball coach Kerry Glover picks up career win No. 100 in runaway win over Annville-Cleona

Kerry Glover became the sixth Columbia boys hoops coach to hit the century mark in the program's 107-year history.

"It's the teams we beat over the last couple of years," Glover said. "We get big games. … We don't get 100 wins playing nobodies."

Columbia finished off last season having won its third-straight section crown, a feat that hadn't been accomplished by the Tide in more than three decades. The Tide went on to win the District Three Class 3A crown - the program's first such title since 1994 - before taking eventual state champ Devon Prep down to the last shot in PIAA Class 3A second round loss.

Lebanon, Columbia maintain section leads: L-L League girls basketball roundup, notes for Jan. 12 games

SECTION 4

Columbia 62, Annville-Cleona 26 — The Crimson Tide cemented its lead atop the section charts, racing out to a 35-21 halftime lead and then using a 20-1 third-quarter outburst to subdue the host Dutchmen, who fell another game off the pace — two nights after falling out of a first-place tie with Columbia after coming up short at Pequea Valley. Brie Droege (21 points), Brooke Droege (19 points) and Kailee Soto (10 points) all scored in double-figures for the Tide, while Josie Clay scored 9 points for A-C, which dropped its third straight to fall off the pace.
