TEEVIN TAKES OVER IN CLASH OF LEADERS

Brian Jackson scored 39 points and hit a technical free throw with two seconds left to help Teevin Brothers to a 67-65 victory over Danger Den in a battle of league leaders.

Teevin led most of the way in a close battle, but Nate McBride hit back-to-back 3-pointers in the final two minutes to make it a one possession game. With seven seconds left and Teevin leading by three, Danger Den's Tex Cokley was fouled on a 3-point shot attempt and hit all three free throws to tie the game at 65.

On Teevin's final possession, Josh Ray missed a shot inside and Cokley grabbed the rebound, calling time out as the clock expired. A ruling by the referee, his older brother Mike, determined that the time out was requested with two seconds left. The problem was, Danger Den had already used its allotted two time outs, resulting in a technical foul. Jackson hit one of two free throws and on the inbounds possession, Ray was fouled underneath, converting another free throw for the final margin.

Cokley finished with a team-high 25 points, leading four Danger Den players in double figures.

Earlier in the night, league leading scorer Mike Cokley hit 11 3-pointers, scoring 55 points to lead The Logger past Western Underground 89-71.

Kyle Jackson scored 39 points and Matt Johnson's three point attempt and Mike Oien's rebound tip attempt were off the mark as the buzzer sounded on Ed's Septic's 86-84 victory over Nygaard/Hunt. Oien led all scorers with 42 points and pulled down 14 rebounds.
