Ter'Nazia Elvine hit this three despite the defense.

It was a must win for the Barons as BCMS hosted J.R. Trippe Tuesday afternoon. A boys win and they would pull into three-way tie with the Chiefs and Dodge County for first place.

The Lady Barons trailed 18-17 at halftime and were down 25-24 after three thanks in part to going 0 for 4 from the foul line. Down 29-28 with under a minute left in the fourth, Ter’Nazia Elvine hit her second three of the half. The Lady Chiefs tied things at 31 with 14 seconds left.

Fans react after Elvine's fourth quarter three that put the Lady Barons ahead.

Elvine hit one of two free throws with five seconds remaining. JRT appeared to tie the game on a free throw with three seconds left, but it was waived off due to a lane violation. BC hung on 32-21. Elvine had 16 points.
