It looked like a long game at first, as Carter Crone scored from inside, Zane Reed scored six points, and Patrick Cowley scored from inside as Pattonsburg opened the game on a 10-2 run. But then Alex Rinehart shot the Tigers back into the game, scoring 11 points in the final 4:12 as they fought back to trail 16-13 after one.
Grant Cameron got loose in transition and added a pair of free throws to put Worth County on top 17-16 at the 6:36 mark. Pattonsburg moved back in front 25-21 at the four minute mark of the second, but then Jaxon Anderson took a charge on defense, and that seemed to spark the Tigers for the remainder of the half. Alex Rinehart scored nine points in the final 2:06 of the half, while Aydan Gladstone added an inside shot as the Tigers regained the lead and went up 32-27 at the half.
Zane Reed got the hot hand again for Pattonsburg, scoring the first eight points of the third for the Panthers, and Carter Crone added a free throw to put his team up 36-32. But then Aydan Gladstone converted a three point play, and Alex Rinehart once again closed out the third strong, getting seven in the final 4:25 as the Tigers went back in front.
Jaxon Anderson put the Tigers in front by as much as 44-37 with 1:35 left in the third, but then Dylan McCrary hit a 3-pointer and Zane Reed hit two as the Panthers got it down to 48-46 early in the fourth and erased the lead by the 6:09 mark of the game behind a Cowley triple to go up 52-51.
Jackson Runde’s 3-pointer put the Tigers back in front 58-54, but then turnovers cost them as Pattonsburg stole the ball twice and moved back in front 59-58 after Carter Crone’s 3-point play.
Carter Crone scored off a drive with 1:51 left to make it 61-58, but then Grant Cameron tied it right back up again with a 3-pointer. But after Cowley hit two free throws with 1:24 left, Worth County couldn’t answer, and Cowley made it two possessions with two free throws with 41 seconds left, as Worth County was forced to foul.
But after Jackson Runde missed a 3-pointer, Jaxon Anderson stole the ensuing outlet pass with 17 seconds left and Anderson hit a 3-pointer on the left side off a pass from Alex Rinehart with 10.2 seconds left to make it 65-64.
Zane Reed only made one out of two to make it 66-64 to leave the barn door open, and Worth County took advantage. Jaxon Anderson drove the middle of the line and dished off to Jackson Smith after Pattonsburg helped out on defense. Smith’s five-footer was in and out, but Anderson got the putback at the buzzer to tie it at 66 and send it to overtime.
But this time, Zane Reed hit a 3-pointer, Worth County lost Cowley on defense, and Dakota Eaton hit two free throws to make it 73-66, and Pattonsburg was able to hit their free throws down the stretch the rest of the way.
