No. 1 Virginia edges Louisville on Hunter’s buzzer-beater
By GARY B. GRAVES
Associated Press
ACC
LOUISVILLE,
Ky.
—
De’Andre Hunter’s 3-pointer as
time expired gave No. 1 Virginia
a 67-66 victory over Louisville
on Thursday night in a wild
finish that made the Cavaliers
the first Atlantic Coast Confer-
ence team to go 9-0 on the road
in league play.
Needing everything to over-
come an energized Cardinals
squad desperate for a statement
victory, the Cavaliers (27-2,
16-1) tied the game at 58 with
2 minutes left and overcame
another five-point deficit in
the final minute. Louisville led
66-64 and tried to inbounds
with .9 seconds left, but Virginia
got the ball after Deng Adel
was called for traveling on the
baseline.
After a timeout, Hunter got
the ball and sank a long 3 that
banked in at the horn, sparking

a wild dog pile of Cavaliers
celebrating in front of Louisville
bench.
Ty Jerome scored 21 points
while Devon Hall and Kyle Guy
each had 10 and Hunter seven as
Virginia became the first ACC
team with perfect road league
record since Duke (8-0) in the
2011-12 season.
Adel had 18 points for Louis-
ville (19-11, 9-8).

flinch or fade despite trailing,
and stuck with their game plan
until getting a final chance that
went through. Shooting 56
percent in the second half helped
along with holding Louisville to
36 percent after halftime. They
also outrebounded the Cardinals
34-27.
Louisville: Facing a tall order
against a Cavaliers squad that
had beaten them five straight
times, the Cardinals had their
chances to seal it but missed
free throws late before Adel’s
turnover gave Virginia a final
chance. With it went a golden
opportunity to get the signature
win they needed, one that they
let slip away.
PREPS: No. 5
Nixyaawii falls
to No. 4 Triad
Continued from 1B
NO. 4 TRIAD 40, NO. 5
NIXYAAWII 38 — In the Class 1A
quarterfinals, No. 4 Triad hit a buzz-
er-beater to keep its run at a title alive
while sending the No. 5 Nixyaawii
Golden Eagles into the consolation
bracket.
The lay up at the buzzer by the
Timberwolves (22-6) ended a close
32 minutes of play.
At halftime, the game was tied,
18-18, and by the end of third quarter,
Triad was up 28-25.
The Golden Eagles (24-4) still had
a lot of fight left and with two minutes
on the clock, knotted the score up
once again at 36 points apiece. But
Triad’s late efforts were enough to
send the Timberwolves through to
face No. 1 Pacific in the semifinals.
Nixyaawii will play No. 9
Hosanna Christian in the consolation
semifinals. Tipoff is at 8 a.m.
PLAYOFF PREVIEW: Pendleton, Hermiston boys on the road to face top-three seeds
Continued from 1B
to the finals in 2016, and are
looking for their first taste at
the playoffs since then.
Silverton has held its
opponents to as many as 52
points and as few as seven
throughout its 21 wins.
The Bulldogs have finally
found their rhythm late in the
season, winning 10 of their
last 12 games including four
consecutive wins that was
capped off by a 67-40 play-in
victory over St. Helens.
Hermiston was booted out
of the playoffs last year by a
narrow 46-45 loss to Bend.
Tipoff is scheduled for 6
p.m.
BOYS BASKETBALL
After
winning
the
Columbia River Conference
for the first time in four years,
the Hermiston Bulldogs were
essentially waiting to see who
they would host for Round 1
of the 5A OSAA playoffs.
More often than not, the
winners of each conference
will get home-court advan-
tage unless that team falls
outside of the top 16, which
is what happened to Herm-
iston when the brackets were
released Wednesday.
So now, the No. 15 seeded
Bulldogs (12-11 overall) hit
the road to face No. 2 Crater
at 6 p.m. Friday.
The Comets (23-1) are
nearly perfect on the season
with their lone loss nearly two
months behind them. Crater
opened league play on Jan.
5 with against Springfield,
where the Millers handed
the Comets a 19-point loss,
64-45.
Of Craters 23 wins, only
four have been decided by
less than 10 points.
Hermiston enters the
matchup on a five-game win
streak — its longest of the
season.
NO. 14 PENDLETON
AT NO. 3 THURSTON —
On Saturday, No. 14 Pend-
leton will play for its ticket
into the quarterfinals. After
the Buckaroos’ 60-39 victory
over Putnam in a play-in
game Wednesday, they just
have to get through the next
32 minutes.
That’s the message head
coach Kyle Tedder is sharing
with his team in preparation
for their postseason run.
“Our guys have been
there, they know what it
takes, they know what it
feels like to be there and
now it’s a matter of making
it happen,” Tedder said after
Wednesday’s game. “The
end goal is to get to the
tournament because anything
can happen once you’re, and
I think we’re good enough to
beat any team.”
The Buckaroos (15-10
overall) will have their work
cut out for them against the
No. 3 Thurston Colts.
Their roster has the expe-
rience of six seniors, who are
looking for redemption after
getting bumped out of the
playoffs with a Round 1 loss
to Wilsonville last year.
Tipoff is slated for 7 p.m.
