Tiger boys end season in overtime nailbiter

Boys Basketball

ODESSA – The Tiger boys ended their season last Friday night at home in Odessa. This was a loser-out game, so both the Selkirk and Odessa teams were playing with great intensity. After leading through most of regulation time, the Tigers were unable to hold off a late surge by the Rangers that tied the game at 54-54 as the buzzer sounded to end the fourth quarter. Three Tiger starters had fouled out by the end of the game, as had a couple of players from the opposing team. Flaring tempers also led to a technical foul being called on the Tigers after regulation time had ended. Selkirk went to the free-throw line and sank two shots to take the lead during the overtime period and never relinquished it.

Jacob Scrupps led the team offense with 19 points and Daeton Deife added 14.

Quarter 1 2 3 4 ot Fin

Scrupps also led the team in rebounding with five.
