Hoover battled back. 34-33 P. Valley with 5:00 left. This could get interesting.

 

[hawkeye ball]

King fouls out. He scored all 19 points that Hoover has scored so far this second half. 37-36 Hoover 2 minute left.

That travel call killed me. Bad way to seal the game IMO. Looked more like defensive foul than travel.

 

[hawkeye ball]

Yeah and Hoover had a timeout left. Tough way to end it there. PV on to the finals.

Pleasant Valley seemed to be in control through most of the game. Then the Chris King showed started in the second half getting Hoover a lead. It was abrubtly canceled though with King's 5th foul. PV grinded out the win from there. I was impressed with PV's size and shooting.

Should set up for a good championship game. Not very often you see a championship game with two teams who know each other as well as these do. They split in the regular season, who will get the tiebreaker.
