Unified Basketball

Oxbow 50, Lyndon 50

Key players: Oxbow — Noah Hatch, Boston French, Isiah Clogston; Lyndon — Tanner Harvey, Jacoby Rowe

Highlights: An exciting game ended in a tie between the Olympians and Vikings. Lyndon was down by two in the closing seconds of the game when Harvey stole the ball and went coast to coast and laid it in to tie the game with only seconds left. Oxbow pushed it up the court and Hatch took a last-second 3-pointer from just over half-court that rimmed out as the buzzer sounded. Hatch finished with a game-high 26 points and French added 10 for the O’s.

Coach’s quote: “What a game! I was very proud of how our team competed today.” — Oxbow’s Barry Emerson

Records: Oxbow 1-1-1; Lyndon 1-0-1
