getting to the nals was a nice reward for all the
hard work, according to Sayre.
e last-second layup against Somers that
sent the team to the nals was not bad either.
“ ey (Somers) missed a free throw. We
dribbled down, but we didn’t have anything. So
we called a timeout,” Sayre recalled. “O the
screen, Josh Cooper caught it, gripped it and
made the shot.”
Soren Johnson really captured the moment,
though.
“I don’t know, it was just insane,” he boasted.
Even so, Sunday sent the boys back down to
Earth. Hastings jumped out to a 14-4 second-
quarter lead, and the half ended with John Jay
down by 23.
e good news is the team didn’t quit. Liam
Fulton and Amogha Bhat played the big-
gest part in what would be a 10-0 run. Fulton
opened the third by sinking two from the line,
and taking the cue, Bhat geared up.
He hit a deuce and then took pride in the
pass work that resulted in three more points for
Fulton on the inside.
“I like to pass to my teammates if they are
open,”Bhat said,“I try to get in the other teams’
heads.”
Johnson then capped the outburst with a
long-range three that made it a 31-18 game. A
Hastings three stopped the outburst, but again
the seventh graders were not deterred. Jack
Feeney muscled a put back, and Bhat got to the
line twice to keep the game in reach at 34-22.
However, the mini spurt was the last hur-
rah. Hastings went on a 10-0 run, but the hero
of Saturday night’s (3/11) game still hung his
head high.
“I’m proud. We are a good team,” said Coo-
per.
Fulton was in agreement and had the same
take as his coach. He also gave voice to the
main factor for the team’s giant leap.
“Over the season, we got more of a bond,”
the center said. “We started passing well, drib-
bling well, and came together.”
As for the day’s disappointment, Fulton ex-
pressed the real nal score.
“We played hard, and that’s all that matters.”
