YESHIVA LEAGUE
Heschel 38 SAR 36
In a game in which both offenses struggled for long stretches, the Heat (8-4; 12-7) beat the #24 Sting (6-6; 7-11) to clinch a playoff spot and put a dent in SAR’s postseason chances. Heschel seemed to do everything they could to give the game away after leading by 12 late in the third quarter. SAR scored as many points in the 4th (18) as they had the rest of the game and managed to tie it with :22 left on a steal and fast break layup by Jake Glick. But Hunter Bernhardt drove from the top of the key and hit a floater from 10-feet out on the baseline for the game-winner with :03 left.
