Leslie McDonald's trey lifts Briarcrest to victory
Posted Jan 21, 2009
The play, with 10.7 seconds left in regulation, called for Briarcrest Christian senior guard Leslie McDonald to drive the lane for a potential game-tying layup. But the 6-foot-4 North Carolina signee had other plans with his Saints trailing by two and time running out Tuesday night. "He just decided to pull up and shoot it," Briarcrest coach John Harrington said after McDonald's 3-pointer with 1.8 seconds left had given the Saints a dramatic 48-47 road win.
