At Trenton Friday, at the North Central Holiday Hoops tournament, teams could throw out the record books. Most of the games were good games, with only two games being blowouts.
Out of all the games, the best game was the one between South Harrison’s boys and Brunswick. Brunswick took an early lead, but then South Harrison, despite having a tough luck season, started to take control. They led most of the way and were up 56-50 with a minute and a half left when Brunswick hit a 3-pointer. After the shot, one of South Harrison’s players was whistled for a foul for fighting through a screen, and the new foul rule came into play. Since Brunswick was in the bonus, that meant they had two free throw tries in addition to the made 3-pointer. They made one of two to make it 56-54.
South Harrison then saw two of their best ball handlers foul out in the last minute and a half, but they clung to a lead until half a second was left, when Brunswick hit a guarded three to go up 59-58.
The Bulldogs managed to call timeout before time expired according to the officials, and South Harrison aired it out the full length of the court to Isaac Williams, who is around 6’5” with long arms as well. He caught the ball, whirled around, and got the shot off before the buzzer. It was nothing but net, and South Harrison came away with the 60-59 win.
