Honey Badger Posted February 21, 2025 Posted February 21, 2025 Nice for Highlands to pull out a close one and get some momentum going at the right time.
FrankNicodemus Posted February 21, 2025 Posted February 21, 2025 HOLD THE PHONE let's DO THIS GAME RIGHT WITH HOW IT ENDED! WHAT A GAME, ENJOY I am going to fast forward to the last minute of action in this game b/c that's when the juicy part happens: 1:00 left: Highlands leads the game 66-63 54 seconds: BW gets fouled and goes to the line for the bonus, they hit 1 of 2, Highlands leads 66-64 45 seconds: Birds (Listerman) gets fouled and goes to the line for the bonus, he hits 1 of 2, Highlands leads 67-64 25 seconds: Birds (Rickard) gets fouled and goes to the line for the bonus, he hits 1 of 2, Highlands leads 68-64.... When Rickard misses the 2nd free throw the ball actually gets touched by BW and goes out of bounds, Highlands (Lorenzen) tries for the long pass way back into the backcourt but hits the low hanging ceiling....BW gets the possession back. 18 seconds: BW goes down and BANKS a 3 pointer in, Highlands still holding on with a 68-67 lead 17 seconds: Highlands (Bouldin) gets fouled immediately after the inbounds play. Bouldin to the line for the bonus, hits 1 of 2, Highlands up 69-67. 4 seconds: BW goes down runs some offense finds an open shooter for the 3 and he buries it! Beechwood takes the lead 70-69. Highlands takes a timeout to set up their play.... Here we go, Lorenzen throws a short pass into Vinny Listerman, Vinny takes the ball on a mad dash straight down the court, BW looks super scared to put any pressure on him for the concern of a foul. One last defender looks like he just steps out of Vinny's way instead of potentially risking it and trying to take a charge and Vinny just puts in an easy uncontested layup at the buzzer for the WIN. BIRDS WIN, BIRDS WIN, BIRDS WIN!!!!! #GO BIRDS!!!!!! 3
