GAME OF THE DAY

Heroics at the end of regulation and at the buzzer of overtime gave unbeaten Barrington a 48-46 victory over Mt. Hope in a Division II-East girls basketball duel. The Eagles’ Catherine Matthews drained a 3-pointer with four second left in regulation to tie the score and send the game into o.t., where Julie Moss’s baseline jumper as time expired gave Barrington the win. Kelly Mannix, who was held to just three points in the first half, scored seven in the second and five of Barrington’s seven points in overtime for a game-high 15 points. Matthews finished with 14 and Moss had 11. Mara Newland and Kayla Whiting each had 10 points for the Huskies, who led 22-14 at halftime and all of the second half before Matthews tied it.
