CCS Open Updates

[cb1]

Mitty 13, Bellarmine 12 at the end of one. Mitty led 10-2, Bells coach called time, then went on a 10-3 run.

 

[cb1]

Bellarmine leads 30-24 at the half. Riley Grigsby leads all scorers with 10. Mitty took 7 more shots than the Bells, but their only 7-24 from the field.

 

[cb1]

Bells 40, Mitty 37 at the end of three.

 

[cb1]

Bells 48, Mitty 44 with 2:48 to go.

 

[cb1]

48 all with just under a minute to go.

 

[cb1]

Still 48 all with 14.6 to go. Mitty ball with 8 on the shot clock. Let's see what happens...

 

[cb1]

Grigsby misses, Mitty comes with it, Angelo Athens to the rim... and he's swatted away by Joseph Vaughn. Overtime!

 

[cb1]

I meant Bellarmine came up with it! But you probably knew that.

 

[cb1]

Angelo Athens with a huge three-pointer with 35 seconds to go puts BCP back in the lead 54-52. It's LOUD. Mitty will inbound after a timeout with 28 seconds to go.

 

[cb1]

Wow. Karl Peterson hasn't hit a thing all night (0-6) and he just buried a long three-pointer with 15 seconds to go. 55-54 Mitty.

 

[cb1]

On the Bells possession, Jake Wojcik gets called for an offensive foul. Mitty ball, leading by 1, with 4.7 seconds to go.

 

[cb1]

Grigsby to the line with 3.2 to go... makes them both. Bellarmine calls their final timeout down by three.

 

[cb1]

Angelo Athens got a good look for a three-pointer at the buzzer, but it clanked off the rim. He held his head in his hands for a good while reliving that one.

They say it's hard to beat a team three times in a season. That proved correct tonight.

Final score Mitty 57, BCP 54.

As your reward? A first round loss to woodcreek instead of a chance to win D2 NorCal.

Riley Grigsby led all scorers with 20. Angelo Athens had 19. A great night of basketball at Santa Clara between the boys and girls games.

Thanks, GOTF. I will be at the Leavey Center tomorrow so should be able to post updates for Div. I and Div. II. Great atmosphere tonight. And I agree with observer22. I'm sure Mitty is quite happy to get the section championship.

It was a lose / lose for the WCAL as Bellarmine probably has to hit the road for their Open opener....
