Smithfield 65 New Kent 64 Final. Wild Finish

[kwhs95fan]

Smithfield was up 64-61 and fouled Will Ross on a three with 6 seconds to go. Ross makes all three to tie it up at 64. Smithfield goes down and tries a 3 and they're fouled with 0.2 seconds left. They miss the first two free throws, but make the third to win by one and give New Kent it's first loss. Smithfield was up by 10 in the 3rd quarter and NK battled back to tie it a few times and even had the chance to take the lead, but didn't. All in all, a very good high school basketball game between two very good teams. Smithfield improves to 18-3, while New Kent is now 21-1 and finish the regular season at Warhill tomorrow night

It was a really good game that came down to the wire. Both teams played well. Smithfield was just a point better tonight

I been waiting all week for this game especially since Hopewell didn’t get to play Petersburg. I think it was good a good game just don’t see NK competing with the top tier class 3 teams.

After seeing Hopewell highlights, they would absolutely destroy New Kent

I've seen Hopewell play many times this year, and I can say they're a talented team. I think the x factor for Hopewell is center Jordan , he's been playing like he's 6'10 of lately. And in order for them to get to the championship and have a shot at winning he'll need to continue to play well. The playoffs are a new season and it's about match up , New Kent, I.c norcom , Lakeland and others will be on the hunt to knock someone out. Good luck teams.

After what I seen last night NK doesn’t matchup well with Hopewell especially in the paint. Jordan is the easy answer but I think Spellman wins POY if he played the 2nd half in the blowouts. Then Nick Byrd one of the most poised PGs in the state can handle anything thrown to him
