McLean Boys
On Friday night, the McLean Highlanders finished up their regular season with a heart-rending 52-50 loss in overtime, but they wouldn't have to wait long for revenge. In the first round of the Liberty District playoffs, the No. 5 Highlanders ousted No. 4 South Lakes 55-53. At halftime, McLean led by three points, at 24-21, and after the half, both teams began scoring more freely, led by Peter Kanellias and his game-high 20 points for the Highlanders. With less than 10 seconds to go, the score was locked at 53 and McLean had possession. Sean Fitzgerald, who had scored only four points by this point in the game, drove the lane and made a layup to win the game for the Highlanders, with a final score of 55-53. Ammoury added 16 for the Highlanders.
