Nick Bagley set his feet and allowed Caribou's Donovan Savage to charge into him, and an offensive foul was called on Savage. Bruce St. Peter missed two free throws in the final minutes of regulation, but thanks to a Caribou playing stepping over the line, he was able to take another free throw and sank it. Then there was Bryce Harmon's game tying 3 point shot from just over half court with 1.3 second left!
