Greenbrier High beat Lakeside 47-43 on Tuesday in an overtime thriller to earn its first Region 2-AAAA win in boys basketball.

In a mostly defensive game with five lead changes, the Wolfpack overcame a five point deficit in the fourth period to tie the game at 43 and eventually win in overtime.

Down 40-35 with two minutes to go in the fourth, Greenbrier’s Zach Woo hit a 3-pointer, his third of the night, followed just seconds later with a Darius McAdoo layup on a fast break to tie the game.

Evans High extended its three-game undefeated streak in Region 2-AAAA with an 80-60 win Friday over county rival Lakeside.

The first period was the Myles McDavid show with the Evans guard putting up 11 points to give the Knights (11-5, 3-0) a 12-point edge.

That lead was extended to 17 by the end of the half with six Evans players hitting baskets, most often off Lakeside (8-9, 0-3) turnovers.

Evans maintained the 17-point lead at the end of the third and it proved too much for the Panthers to overcome.
