Sotomayor boys basketball trending towards program’s first playoff berth with win over Stevens
The Wildcats are on the rise. Sotomayor defeated Stevens 48-38 on Wednesday night at Paul Taylor Fieldhouse , matching last season’s entire win total. But the more significant moment is that Sotomayor is one step closer to earning the boys basketball program’s first playoff appearance. “We have a chance to make the playoffs and do something special and make history,” Sotomayor senior center Demian Joyner said. “We just didn’t want to let that chance get away.
Sotomayor ends its regular season against Harlan, which it lost by only four points back on Jan. 10. Still, the Wildcats are not taking any opponent lightly. “Don’t let loose, don’t underestimate anybody,” senior guard Jasiah Saunders said about his team’s mindset. Sotomayor has been trending upwards, improving every season after going 5-28 overall and 0-16 in district play during its inaugural season. The 2023-2024 team went 16-17 overall and 9-7 in district.
