Rockets win on buzzer-beater

CALHOUN, Ky. - A tightly-guarded Preston Turley made a three-pointer from just inside the midline Friday, lifting the Rockets to a 46-45 win over McLean County.

The Rockets brought the ball into its back court with 2.7 seconds to play and Turley never gave it up before knocking down the buzzer-beater. 

CCHS closed out the regular season 12-8. McLean falls to 17-8. The Rockets bested the Cougars in overtime when they met in Marion a few weeks ago.

Crittenden will play tournament host Trigg County in Monday's 7:45pm game to open post-season Fifth District play.
