Wow that was a ripsnorter. I stepped away from the game for a while in the third quarter and Mathews appeared to be in cruise control, leading 41-28. I then tuned back in just in time to see Altavista hit a three at the buzzer to make it 42-41 heading into the fourth. It was then nip and tuck the rest of the way. As Festivus mentioned, it was kind of funky to see something happen on the screen in absolute silence and then wait for the fan reaction a few seconds later. My delay was only about five seconds as near as I could figure.
Great game but tough day to be a Devils fan. The boys state final will be interesting if it comes down to Altavista vs. Parry McCluer. I will try to juggle the PM/Burton game and the East Rock Class 2 game starting here at 6:00.
