Six local basketball teams took to New Rochelle’s Monroe College this weekend for the Hoops for a Cure Tripleheader.

The first game pitted unbeatens Tuckahoe and Blind Brook and Tuckahoe came out on top 55-26. New Rochelle took the second game with ease as the Huguenots beat Scarsdale 63-39 and Eastchester came from behind to win the nightcap 66-57.

The weekend was also phenomenal for local fans who were interested in the pros. The Knicks finally got back on track with two wins in Washington and Detroit and the Giants cruised past the Falcons 24-2.

The final game of the NFL’s Wild Card Weekend was the best of them all as the Denver Broncos beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in the first overtime game in the playoffs under the new rules. The Broncos were led by controversial quarterback Tim Tebow and we have all seen the skit on Saturday Night Live and read  about the former Gator but one thing is for sure; the man’s competitive fire can help heat the city of Denver throughout the winter.

Next week the Broncos will head into New England while the Giants will play in Green Bay. Both the Patriots and Packers will be the favorites, but the way the Giants and the Broncos are playing right now I wouldn’t be shocked to see Eli and Tebow advancing after next weekend.
