Ok, I alluded to it in the tournament thread but here it is with a description.
First of all it was a great game, little back and forth and hotly contested.
Grace Prep started strong behind Isiah Austin blocking a lot of shots on defense and Jamal Branch being very effective off the bounce. They had a lead after the 1st quarter, then Douglass turned the pressure up and Stevie Clark keyed a 10-0 run (2 threes, a steal and lay up, fast break assist). Douglass built a 6 point halftime lead if I remember right. Douglass played a good 3rd quarter and had a 4 point lead after 3.
Grace Prep started strong in the 4th with Isiah Austin hitting some jumpers and Branch continuing to be strong attacking the hole. Romond Jenkins played really well this quarter and so do Buxton-Hill in the low block. Dorrian Williams hit a key 3 for Douglass late in the 4th as well.
Then with about 35 seconds left Jelon Hornbeak gets fouled for Grace Prep down 64-63. Its an one on one and he hits both. Douglass goes down the court and feeds Buxton-Hill who hits a shot over Austin with about 12 seconds left. Jamal Branch flies down the court for Grace Prep and hits a lay up. Then Devonte Smith, I believe, takes it length of the court and misses the lay up but Romond Jenkins tips it in for the winner. The only thing is I don't think it should've counted. Pandemonium insures, I think I cut if off (this video on my phone) before it went too crazy. The Grace Prep coach (a "energetic"guy in the first place) tears off his suite jacket and chases after the refs who are going to the locker room.
Now here is a poor quality video of it (I dont have the a computer capable of getting it off the camera onto computer but since it has a HDMI port I put it on my TV and then recorded it with my phone. Since my phone can automatically upload it to youtube here it is.)
