Althoff takes a 12-9 lead on Zach Winkeler's 3-ball in transition at the 4:49 mark of the second quarter and T-town coach Chester Reeder asks for time. Winkeler's bucket marks the first points for a Crusader not named Dierre Hill Jr.

20-15 Althoff at the half as Zach Winkeler got going for 7 pts, helping it take a 7-point lead on 2 occasions. T-town played beat the buzzer as Alex Kremer drove 94 feet for a layup in traffic with 0.4 seconds left. First team to reach 40 looks like your winner tonight.

Althoff beat Teutopolis 48-37 at the SIU-Carbondale Banterra Center in the Class 2A super-sectional game and advances to the state tournament. Read a Bucky Dent James (Bucky) Dent story & see more photos at STLhighschoolsports.com STLhighschoolsports timvizerphotography.com #basketball
