Thur., December 28th…Westtown School vs. Bishop McNamara (MD): At the legendary Salm Dunk to the Beach showcase in Delaware, Westtown will face a traditional Maryland powerhouse squad. But with the way talented forward Daveyon Lydner Daveyon Lydner 6'2" | CG Westtown School | 2025 State PA and Lafayette commit Malik Rasul Malik Rasul 6'8" | PF Westtown School | 2024 State PA have been playing of late, this matchup should not be a problem.
