BROOKVILLE 55, BRADFORD 54, 2 OVERTIMES

BROOKVILLE, Pa. — Sophomore Brooke Shattenberg’s layup as time expired in the second overtime period lifted the Brookville Lady Raiders to a 55-54 win over visiting Bradford in the District 9 League.

Bradford’s Raya Hennigan gave her team a 54-53 lead when she hit one of two free throws with 32.4 seconds remaining in the second OT. The Lady Owls (6-13, 3-5) had a chance to extend the lead following a Brookville turnover, but Morgan Roggenbaum missed two free throws with 7.8 seconds left to set up the final sequence.

With the Lady Raiders (12-6, 5-4) needing to go the length of the court, Brenna Dworek inbounded to Elaina Powell who passed back to her at the top of the key in a crowd. Dworek got control of the ball and shoveled a pass to Shattenberg in time for the winner.

Shattenberg led the Lady Raiders with 16 points and eight rebounds while Powell scored 15 points and grabbed seven rebounds. Hali Olson fouled out with 1:39 left in regulation and had a double-double with 13 points and 10 rebounds.

Bradford’s Rylee Lundgren and Bri Wells scored 18 and 16 points respectively, but neither were on the court at the end of the game because of fouling out.

Brookville trailed 42-39 with 1:06 left in regulation and managed to tie it with two Dworek free throw and another from Samantha Reinard with 38.3 seconds left to knot it at 42-42.

At the end of the first overtime, Powell hit two free throws with 10.8 seconds remaining to force the second extra frame at 50-50.

Bradford, which saw its 3-game winning streak end, didn’t shoot a free throw until the second half and made just 9 of 23 freebies, leaving the door open for Brookville’s rally. The Lady Raiders were badly in need of a win having dropped two straight and four of six heading into the night.
