Buzzer Beater Sinks Scout Boys

Lake Forest High School boys’ basketball team falls to Zion Benter in final two seconds.

 

Jan. 26 

The Final Score:        Zion Benton 57, Lake Forest 56 

Scouts Star Performers:       Carter Bass scored 18 points and Evan Bordreaux added 17.

Other Notable Scout Performance:             Sam Downey chipped in 10 tallies. 

Who’s Next:   The Scouts entertain Warren at 7: 30 p.m. Friday. 

The Bottom Line:      A three-point field goal by Zion’s Malik Yarbrough with two seconds remaining was the game winner. With the contest tied late, Downey made a pair of free throws to give Lake Forest a 56-54 edge heading into the game’s final possession before Yarbrough gave his team the victory. After trailing by six points at halftime, the Scouts outpointed the Zee-Bees in the third period, 21-16, to climb back in the game. Lake Forest is now 13-5 for the season and 4-4 in the North Suburban Conference Lakes Division.
