Join us for the Men’s Basketball Team Tournament Selection Watch Party March 2 at 2 p.m.

The Men’s basketball team have advanced again and now they’re District champions. Our CCP Lions won the Region 19/North Atlantic District Championship on Saturday, Feb. 26 after defeating nationally ranked Brookdale Community College 78-58. The team will advance onto Nationals where the Lions will participate in the NJCAA DIII Men’s Basketball Championship at Rock Valley College in Rockford, IL from Wednesday-Saturday, March 9-12.   
  
Saturday's game brought out the best in the players and coaches who hustled hard to secure the win. Sophomore guard Amir Woods was named the game’s MVP, and CCP’s men’s coach Joe Rome was named the North Atlantic District Coach of the Year. Most recently, freshman Ryan Holmes was recognized as the Eastern Pennsylvania Athletic Conference (EPAC) Player of the Year and alongside teammate Isaac Marshall, earned All-Conference First Team honors. Nizja Faison earned All-Conference Second Team honors.  
  
As the Lions continue their road to Nationals, we’re cheering them on every step along the way. We’re inviting you to cheer with us and the Lions as we host a Tournament Selection Show Watch Party on Wed., March 2 at 2 p.m. in the Bonnell Lobby open to the College community. The Watch Party will reveal the CCP Lions seeding selection which will determine who and when they’ll play during the national showdown.   
 
Fans looking to attend the Watch Party will need to abide by the College’s COVID-19 safety guidelines as we safely celebrate our team’s success.    
 
The National Tournament bracket will be broadcast on the NJCAA Network's Selection Show for at-home viewing. The Tournament’s official live statistics and box scores will be available here.
