BOYS STATE TOURNAMENT AT THE WELLS FARGO ARENA IN DES MOINES
DES MOINES — Remsen St. Mary’s squandered a 10-point third quarter lead Monday afternoon before Spencer Schorg and Brayden Ricke hit two foul shots each in the final 45 seconds of the game to rally the Hawks to a 58-55 win over Prince of Peace from Clinton in the 1A quarterfinals in Des Moines. The Irish took a 55-54 lead on two foul shots by Kaidion Larson with 56 seconds to play before Schorg’s two free throws with 45 seconds left put St. Mary’s back in front 56-55. Ricke’s two foul shots with 25 seconds to go extended the lead to three. Ricke missed a pair of charity shots with 7.5 seconds remaining that could have iced the victory, opening the door for Prince of Peace to tie it with a three-pointer. Schorg, however, fouled Larson before he could launch a three-point attempt, sending him to the free throw line for a one-and-one opportunity with 2.5 seconds to play in the game. Larson missed the first free throw attempt and Brady Homan secured the rebound for the Hawks as they held on for the victory. Spencer Schorg led the Hawks into Wednesday’s semifinals with 19 points while Skyler Waldschmitt added 14. Remsen St. Mary’s (20-6) plays Alburnett (19-5) at 3:45 Wednesday afternoon at the Wells Fargo Arena. The game will be carried on KLEM.

DUNCANVILLE, Texas — Former Iowa Hawkeyes running back Damon Bullock died early Sunday morning in what his mother described on social media as a “terrible accident.” He was 25. Bullock was struck by a car around 3 a.m. near his family’s home in Duncanville, Texas, 15 miles south of downtown Dallas. Bullock’s father said he hit a light pole on the road median, causing street lights at the intersection to disconnect. As Bullock parked his car on the side of the road and walked to the street, he was reportedly hit by a commuter’s vehicle.
Washington, D.C. — Former Gehlen Catholic all-state football standout, Bryan Nohava, had quite an experience Monday! He accompanied the North Dakota State football team to the White House to be honored by President Donald Trump on the Bison’s national championship. Nohava was a red-shirt freshman at N-D-S-U this season. The group reportedly dined on Trump’s favorite McDonald’s fast-food items.

DES MOINES — Izic Mackey’s tip-in as time expired lifted Alburnett to a 39-37 semifinal round victory over Remsen St. Mary’s in the Class 1A boys State basketball tournament Wednesday afternoon in Des Moines. The Hawks trailed 27-17 with 5:15 to play in the third quarter when St. Mary’s went on a 12-1 run and took a 29-28 lead with 4:46 to play on Brayden Ricke’s third three-pointer of the game. The Pirates rebuilt a 35-31 lead with :56 seconds to play in the game. Blaine Harpenau connected on a three-pointer out of the left corner to narrow the deficit to 35-34 with :35 seconds remaining. A pair of free throws by Hunter Graves with :26 seconds to play following a collision with the Hawks’ Brayden Ricke that opened a bloody gash over Graves left eye, forcing an Alburnett time out while they did a quick patch job to close the wound. Those free throws put Alburnett in front 37-34 but Harpenau buried another three from the left corner with :18.1 seconds to play to tie the game at 37-all. On Alburnett’s final possession, Hunter Graves drove into the lane and launched a shot that bounded off the rim and straight into the waiting hands of Mackey in the middle of the lane for the game-winning put-back. Mackey finished with a game-high 19 points while Blaine Harpenau had 13 and Brayden Ricke 11 for Remsen St. Mary’s (20-7). The Hawks play in the third place game for the third straight year, facing No. 4 Montezuma (22-2) at 10:20 Thursday morning. The game will be carried on KLEM.

DES MOINES — Sophomore Cole Watts had a pair of foul shots for No. 4 Montezuma with l.9 second to play that could have sent the game into overtime, but Watts could only hit the first and his missed second free throw was rebounded by Austin Jensen as Remsen St. Mary’s held on for a 50-49 upset victory in the Class 1A consolation game Thursday at the boys State tournament in Des Moines. The Hawks winning margin came on Spencer Schorg’s two foul shots with 22.4 seconds to play to snap a 48-all tie. Schorg finished with 14 points to lead St. Mary’s while Blaine Harpenau had 13. Trey Schearer had 23 points for the Braves and Hunter Ray finished with 13. This marked the third straight year that St. Mary’s has played for third place but the first time they have won the consolation game. Remsen St. Mary’s wrapped up a 21-7 season with the victory and the expectations are already running high for next year as everybody returns.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) – Amir Harris scored the go-ahead layup with 10.8 seconds left and Thorir Thorbjarnarson blocked Jordan Bohanon’s 3-point try at the buzzer as Nebraska came back from a nine-point deficit in the last minute of regulation to beat Iowa 93-91 in overtime. The win might have served as an emotional sendoff for Cornhuskers’ coach Tim Miles, whose future at Nebraska is in serious doubt after his team’s free fall the second half of the season. Iowa lost its fourth straight.
