Adams Does it Again
It was almost exactly one year ago that Jalen Adams broke St. Andrew's heart, draining a 30 foot buzzer beater to steal the NEPSAC AA championship for Cushing Academy.
On Saturday those two teams met again, this time in the NEPSAC semifinals, and found a similar conclusion.
Despite trailing for virtually the entire game, Cushing fought all the way back and cut the deficit to just one after a Kaleb Joseph three-pointer. Joseph got the ball back on Cushing’s final possession, driving to the rim and putting up a runner that would come off the rim.
That’s where Adams returned to the picture, flying in from the perimeter and elevating over the crowd to put-back what would end up being his latest game winner as Cushing advanced to Sunday’s final against Kimball Union Academy.
