Another sports reference this time between Johnson City/Poughkeepsie from this year's NYSPHSAA Class A Boys Basketball State Regional game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iw5F5BmpX2I
Just to add, I saw locations like Mount Kisco, Tarrytown, Mount Vernon, Brooklyn’s Manuel Training HS(now the John Jay Campus) and Nyack(if not in these 3, in another addition from around this time period), among maybe some others.

Just to dispel a myth, I know of white attendees of HBCU’s. I knew of a female from Marcellus that attended Norfolk State, as well as a Football lineman from Homer that played at Virginia Union and a girl that was from Cheektowaga(I believe went to Maryvale) that was on a bowling team at one in NC, if I’m not mistaken, not that long ago. A current example from Webster Schroeder at Alabama State: https://bamastatesports.com/roster.aspx?rp_id=5437
