Emmaus battled back from a double-digit deficit in the second half to come within a free throw of tying the score with less than a minute to play. But the free throw was missed and Parkland held on for the win.
Parkland will next play in the final on Saturday against Easton’s Red Rovers or the Pocono Mountain West Panthers, depending on who wins that matchup tonight.
