Lee leads 40-34, but at the moment some concern as Jarvis Vaughan is on the floor in obvious pain.

Didn't look completely healthy, but he is starting the 4Q for the Leemen

A Vaughan dunk on an alley-oop, so maybe he's OK, but Lee still down 55-44 in 4th Q

Gutty comeback for the Leemen, especially when Vaughan left the game with the injury.

Side note - Lee's FT shooting is going to have to improve!

Central beat themselves...They should have and could have won this game. Nm.

Congrats pizzzzza!! Sounded like a great game.

Thanks friend- but it looked like that wasn’t going to happen, to be honest.

Lee was up 40-34 in the 3rd Q when Vaughan got hurt and left the game - Central then proceeded to outscore Lee 18-2 the rest of the quarter, and led 52-42 entering the 4th.

But just like that crazy Dan River semifinal game last year, Lee rallied from 13 down to pull it out - despite poor free throw shooting the last minute of the game - they will need to work on that.

I’m sorry that Mavahi lost - but that was two very tough games in two nights - plus Radfird is really good!

Hopefully the rest will serve them well before their game against a solid Graham team next week in the state QF.
