If you like basketball… and you weren’t at the Carson High School Gym tonight you missed two AMAZING ball games!
Two games decided in the last 3 seconds…
The first Bishop Manogue vs. McQueen… by all reports Manogue looked flat compared to the last time these two met, McQueen came to play tonight! It was a battle right down to the end with Manogue scoring the game winning bucket with pretty much no time left on the clock… in the photo of the game winning shot you can see the ball in his hand with 4.9 seconds on the clock… After the Manogue crowd was chanting… “… we want Douglas, we want Douglas…”
Douglas did not disappoint… Douglas played Hug… double overtime… behind by two with 3.8 seconds on the clock, inbound at the half line… inbound, pass, pass, three pointer at the buzzer to win the game… bench cleared and the only thing keeping the Douglas fans from clearing to the floor was the Douglas and Carson administrative staff keeping people back… What a game, no way you could have scripted one better than this…
Here are some pictures from tonight… Even the Nevada Governor was in attendance…!
Austin had a big night tonight, breaking out on the wings and long passes up the court or steals and layup shots…
After hitting the three… what can you say? This photo has the agony of defeat and the joy of triumph…
Mr. Brian Sandoval… Nevada’s Governor… out for a little Prep Basketball!
