I would say the lack of a shot clock in high school basketball ruined the last 2 minutes of what was a really close game the whole way. Game changed from basketball to keep away, but not trying to take away from Highlands they played an awesome game, deserved to win.

Wow!  Who's going to score the most 3s in the game between Highlands and Ashland?  

[Joe Tracy]

McCracken played well enough to beat most teams, but Highlands shot the 3 better than any team I've heard of. My grandson said Ashland shoots the same way. When you don't allow a field goal in the 4th Quarter you would assume you would win, but fouling was most of the reason for the lack of field goals. Good luck to the Highland team.
