Sunset knocks off Lincoln, 33-31 Thursday, March 06, 2008

Aliyah Green chases Sunset's Laura Stanulis after a turnover in the fourth quarter of the Cardinals' 33-31 loss Mar. 6 in the 6A quarterfinal at the Chiles Center. Stanulis collected 14 rebounds for the Apollos, who will play Oregon City in Friday's semifinal. Lincoln will face North Medford in the consolation round Friday morning.

This was a painful game to watch ... no flow, little scoring and no flow.

With the score tied at 31 with about 3 seconds left on the clock, the refs called a foul on Aliyah Green--her fifth. Anna Johnson made both her free throws to give the win to Sunset and send the Cardinals to the consolation round.

Lincoln faces North Medford Friday morning in the consolation round. The winner of that game will play Saturday for fourth place.
