Brandon Jennings finished with 9 points but it was the last 3 that really counted. Concord was up by 2 points with 8 seconds left and shooting free throws. The 2,000 screaming Concord fans thought they would be witnessing an upset over the 3rd ranked Oak Hill Warriors. But when the front end of a one-and-one rolled off the rim, Jennings ended up with the ball. The Warriors point guard pulled up and swished a 3-pointer game winner with 1 second left to give the Warriors a 71-70 victory.
“We almost didn’t get the rebound,” Oak Hill head coach Steve Smith said. “The ball was tipped around. Fortunately the ball went to Brandon. He’s quick enough to get the ball down the floor.”
