Wednesday will be quite the day for high school basketball fans in Berks County.
After a couple of thrilling games on Monday, including a last-second game-winning shot for Exeter, the fields are set for the boys and girls semifinals at Santander Arena.
Exeter, the BCIAA Division 2 winners and the tourney’s fifth seed, knocked off defending champion and fourth-seed Wilson 43-41 in one quarterfinal on Monday when Aidan Dauble hit the game-winning basket with 1.1 second left, while second-seed Muhlenberg squeaked past seventh-seeded Wyomissing 60-57.
In the other quarterfinal games on Monday, top-seed and Division 1 winner Berks Catholic defeated eighth-seeded Schuylkill Valley 58-42, and third-seeded Reading High rolled over sixth-seeded Antietam 69-43.
That sets up a quadruple header Wednesday starting at 4 p.m. at Santander with the Gov. Mifflin vs. Exeter girls semifinal first up. The Berks Catholic-Exeter boys semifinal is at 5:30 p.m., followed by Wilson vs. Reading High in the other girls semifinals and the night ends with Muhlenberg and Reading High in the second boys semifinal.

The game was tied at 34 entering the final period, but Exeter pulled out the win by outscoring the Bulldogs 9-7.
