As time expired in the ¿UVWTXDUWHU6HDVLGH¶V+XQWHU Thompson hit a shot from just inside the half-court line, and also drew a foul to complete a four-point play. Seaside teammate Jack- son Januik closed the second period with a 3-pointer at the buzzer and capped the third TXDUWHUZLWKWKUHHVWUDLJKWIUHH throws, after he was fouled on a 3-point attempt with one second left. Three seconds, 10 points, and a nine-point Seaside win.

The Lady Fish scored most of their points with depth, as they were missing Morgan Postlewait and Kendal Gus- tafson from the lineup. Reed said, “Our girls really stepped up. We’re seeing some big time drops out of most of them. The boys are just where we want to be going into league and districts.” You say you’ll always be there. Mean it.
