Memorial sweeps season series with O'Gorman with two more thrillers

B Game: In the first game of the night, the Mustangs used a huge 4th quarter to take the game by a final score of 23-20. Memorial scored most of their total points in the decisive frame. Alex D and Kyle G paced the team in scoring, but the whole team contributed to the victory.
Coach Hoegh says: "We got a little too comfortable with a small lead in the first half, and failed to put the "pedal to the metal" when we could have. Then, in the second half, we played the aggressive game that we need to play. Our guys came through when it counted."

A Game: The Mustangs prevailed in dramatic fashion in the second game, downing O'Gorman 66-63 in triple overtime. The game went back and forth for the game's entirety, and each team had to overcome late deficits at different times (regulation and the overtimes) just to stay alive. Austin B scored 22 points to lead the team offensively.
Coach Hoegh says: "Holy cow... that was crazy. This game featured some awesome stuff. Kaedyn B made a huge coast-to-coast layup to keep us alive in the first overtime. Austin B obviously had a clutch game. Davis J played about as well as anyone could have played - defending several positions, scoring, rebounding - he did it all. We needed the huge efforts that we got from everybody tonight. That was heart-wrenching and fun at the same time."
