Highlights: At the Sovereign Center, the Blazers (21-4) survived a furious late run by the Blue Jays (20-5) and held on when Holy Name's Eric Angstadt missed a 13-foot jumper at the buzzer.

Boone advances to Friday's 8 p.m. Berks final vs. Reading High at the Sovereign Center.

At game's end, the ball bounced to Angstadt near the free-throw line after a frenzied Daniel Boone inbound sequence during which the Blue Jays batted the ball away. Angstadt had led the Holy Name charge, scoring eight of his team-high 15 points in the final 2:27, when the Jays trimmed a 14-point deficit to two.

Dan Sekulski had a game-high 17 points to go with 12 rebounds for Boone, which opened a 58-44 lead on two Zach Benjamin foul shots with 3:16 to play. Benjamin, doing most of his damage off the offensive glass, had 14 points and 12 boards.
