No. 5 CBA 51, No. 4 Red Bank 49

Sophomore David Buley put back his own miss with 3.5 seconds left and the Colts (12-3) held on to beat the Bucs (14-2) on the road, handing Red Bank just its second loss of the season.

Buley finished with 12 points and seven rebounds off the bench and his game-winner helped CBA escape Red Bank with a win after the hosts erased a 10-point second-half deficit to take the lead in the fourth quarter.

On the final play of the game, Buley defended the inbounder both before a foul by Red Bank and after with 1.1 seconds left, with the Bucs inbounding the ball from midcourt. Senior Zayier Dean got off a shot at the buzzer from beyond the three-point line, which came up short.

Senior Justin Fuerbacher led CBA with 13 points and six rebounds and hit a pair of three-pointers to slow Red Bank’s momentum after the Bucs too a 44-39 lead with a 14-0 run. Senior Charlie Messano then hit a midrange jumper to give CBA the lead back, 47-46.

Senior Kevin Pikiell scored 10 points and converted a drive to the basket that stretched CBA’s lead to 49-46. After an empty possession, Red Bank forced a CBA turnover to get the ball back and Dean hit a three-pointer to tie the game at 49 with 59 seconds left.

CBA then ran the clock to 21 seconds and after a timeout, Buley got the ball in the high post and drove to the basket. After missing the first try, he grabbed his own miss and put it right back up for the go-ahead score.

Dean led the fourth-quarter comeback by Red Bank with 10 of his game-high 20 points in the final period. Senior Ryan Fisher added 15 points, but had to leave the game after injuring his head in a collision with teammate Will Galligan.

Dean and Galligan hit three-pointers on back-to-back possessions to open the fourth quarter and tie the game, 39-39, and Red Bank took the lead on a five-point possession. After a CBA turnover, the Colts committed an intentional foul that gave St. Rose two free throws and the ball. Fisher hit both foul shots and Dean followed with a three for a 44-39 lead.

Union Catholic 62, No. 1 St. Rose 59 (OT)

Junior Jayden Hodge scored a game-high 25 points and converted a game-tying layup after a steal with just over a minute left in overtime, but the Vikings (11-4) scored the final three points of overtime to pull out a thriller over the Purple Roses (11-5).

Trailing, 59-55, in overtime, St. Rose scored four straight points to tie the game, starting with an acrobatic shot near the basket by senior Evan Romano as he was fouled. Romano missed the free throw and after a jumpball on the rebound, Hodge stole the ball in the backcourt and laid it in for a 59-59 tie.

St. Rose committed a foul near midcourt, sending Union Catholic senior and former Rumson-Fair Haven guard Luke Schorr to the free-throw line with 58 seconds left. Schorr knocked down both free throws to give Union Catholic a 61-59 lead.

Senior A.J. Altobelli later hit one of two free throws with 18 seconds left to push the Union Catholic lead to three and St. Rose used a timeout with 4.8 seconds left after grabbing an offensive rebound. Romano got off a fading three-point attempt before the buzzer, but it clanged off the back iron.

St. Rose fell into a 29-13 hole early in the second quarter but closed the half with 10 unanswered points as part of a 15-0 run that carried into the opening minutes of the third quarter. The Purple Roses held Union Catholic scoreless for just under seven minutes of game time and without a field goal for just under 10 minutes.

Senior Bryan Ebeling scored all 12 of his points in the second half, including the game-tying drive with 18 seconds left in regulation, knotting the score, 55-55. Romano added eight points and freshman Izayah Cooper chipped in eight for St. Rose.
