Fairmont scores 2 fourth-quarter points, but survives
TROY — Fairmont’s girls basketball team had a seemingly comfortable 34-24 lead entering the fourth quarter in its Division I sectional final matchup against Springboro.
The Firebirds ended up escaping by the skin of their teeth.
Springboro, one of the area’s most improved teams throughout the season, outscored Fairmont 10-2 in the fourth quarter but fell 36-34 on Saturday, Feb. 27. Those two Fairmont points were scored by UD recruit Cassie Sant, who fouled out with 4:27 left in the game and the Firebirds up 36-29.
Springboro then got a 3-pointer from Katie Schubert with 3:37 left and a lay-up following a missed free throw by Jordan Trimarco with 1:17 left. That made it 36-34 Fairmont and completed Springboro’s 10-0 run, but the Panthers weren’t able to get closer.
Fairmont turned the ball over with 37 seconds left, but a Springboro charge with 7.7 seconds left negated that chance. Then, after a missed Fairmont free throw with 6.6 seconds left, Springboro was unable to get a good luck as the top-seeded Firebirds, also No. 1 in the DDN area Division I ratings, advanced to play in next Saturday’s district final at Harrison High School.
Sant led Fairmont with 13 points, and fellow all-Greater Western Ohio Conference first-teamer Olivia Schretzman scored 13 for Springboro.
After she left the game, Sant had ice taped to her right shoulder, which coach Tim Cogan said began hurting during a tangle with a Springboro player under a basket during the game.
