Georgetown stuns Barbers Hill at buzzer, 44-42
Updated 3 days ago | By TODD HVEEM [email protected]

BRENHAM – Kimi Carter did everything humanly possible to lead the Barbers Hill Lady Eagles to victory here on Tuesday night.

And it still wasn’t quite enough.

The Georgetown Lady Eagles showed why they have been ranked No. 1 in the state for most of the season by rallying from a 37-28 deficit with 5:34 left in the game to stun the Barbers Hill Lady Eagles 44-42 in the third round of the Region III-4A girls’ basketball playoffs.

Georgetown (25-6) now advances to this weekend’s Region III-4A tournament at the Aldine ISD Campbell Center, while Barbers Hill, which was seeking its second straight regional title, finished an otherwise brilliant season 31-5.

“Wow,’’ said an emotionally exhausted Georgetown head coach Rhonda Farney after the miraculous comeback win. “We had never been in that kind of situation this year. But our girls never gave up.’’

Carter, who carried Barbers Hill the entire game, hit three straight free throws after being fouled on a 3-point attempt by Haley Frias to knot the game at 42-42 with 10.82 seconds to play.

“That was remarkable,’’ Farney said of Carter’s three straight free throws under immense pressure. “You don’t see many college or professionals that can do that.’’

After Carter’s third make, Georgetown elected to quickly inbound the ball to 5-foot-11 guard Kaitlin Walla and let her take it the length of the floor.

Walla’s running one hander in the lane was off the mark, but 6-1 post Hayley Hunter grabbed the weak side rebound and calmly banked the ball back up and in just before the buzzer to send the Georgetown crowd into a frenzy and the Barbers Hill faithful into shock.

Seniors Makenzi May and Kaylee Kana practially had to be carried into the locker room after playing all 32 minutes and losing the game in such gut-wrenching fashion.

“I thought we were a little tight,’’ admitted Farney, who watched her club grab a 7-0 lead, then fall behind 13-9 before rebounding to cut Barbers Hill’s lead to 30-28 at half. “But give Barbers Hill and Coach (Tri) Danley credit. They had the perfect game plan to slow us down. They played terrific defense.’’

The Lady Eagles also were hitting just enough 3-pointers to offset Georgetown’s inside game and keep the talented  Walla from getting the ball on the break and finding Frias and Hunter for easy baskets.

Barbers Hill, after starting the game by missing its first 10 shots, hit nine 3-pointers for the game to finish their three-game playoff run with 26 triples.

May, who had seven threes in a 62-40 win over Montgomery, was held to only one three, while Abbey Houghton had two threes and freshman Leah Silva hit back-to-back threes to rally Barbers Hill from a six-point deficit midway through the third period.

Carter, who had four triples, took over in the fourth quarter, hitting a 3-pointer and a runner in the lane to up Barbers Hill’s lead to 37-28 with 5:34 to play.

Barbers Hill twice had a chance to increase the lead to double digits, but committed costly turnovers on back-to-back possessions.

Hunter scored on the inside and drew the foul to cut the lead to 37-31 with 4:40 left. After May and Carter both had their shots blocked, Walla hit a free throw to cut the lead to 37-32 with 3:18 left, and Frias came up with a steal and drained Georgetown’s first 3-pointer of the night to slice the margin to 37-35. Georgetown had missed 13 straight 3-pointers to that point.

“I think Haley was bound and determined to keep slinging them up there until she got one,’’ Farney said. “That was a huge momentum swing for us.’’

After Houghton missed a three, Walla hit two free throws to tie the game at 37-37 with 2:10 to play.

Georgetown grabbed its first lead of the fourth quarter when Lorrie Santoy scored off a steal, but Carter tied the game at 39-39 with a bank shot in the lane with 1:05 to play.

Walla answered with a short jumper to give Georgetown a 41-39 lead with 45 ticks left. After Georgetown fouled May and Kaylee Kana, Barbers Hill was trying to work it around for a good shot before it committed a turnover with 19 seconds left.

Houghton fouled Frias with 16 seconds to play, but Frias was only able to make one of the two free throws to leave the lead at 42-39 and set the stage for Carter’s dramatic free throws and Hunter’s eventual game winner.

Farney, who has more than 950 wins in her coaching career, said the game was a classic. But how high does the victory rank in her career?

“It’s the biggest win for tonight,’’ she said. “The game was just phenomenal.’’

Carter paced Barbers Hill with 21 points. Silva, who fouled out with 3:18 left in the game, May and Houghton also had six points apiece.

Despite Carter's heroics Barbers Hill comes up short

As I look back to this past weekend when I saw the elementary school players at the Ganon Baker Camp, it makes me realize how quickly this stuff happens and watching Kimi Carter continue to develop into the silent assassin I predicted she would become after seeing her in elementary school as well. Last season, she started as freshman on a Barbers Hill team that made it to state and this season, they almost made it back to the  R3 F-4

Carter led the Eagles with 18 points including three free throws to tie the game with less than 20 seconds remaining, talk about pressure however Georgetown went the length of the floor for a lay-up, which they missed, however they rebounded the miss and scored for the 44-42 win.


No one though Barbers Hill would do as well as they did this season, but with Carter and Mackenzie May, who seven threes the previous game, this duo was even more dynamic than I would have imagined

JUST TWO POINTS SEPARATE LADY EAGLES

The Georgetown Lady Eagles hit the road again on Tuesday night, this
time to Brenham TX to take on the Barbers Hill Lady Eagles in the
Regional Quarterfinal. playoff game. The faithful Georgetown fans
including 52 Sun City Eagle Boosters on a charter bus made the trip to
cheer on their team. Before the game as the crowd started arriving, it
was like looking in a mirror across the court. Barbers Hill team was
there in their white with blue uniforms and the crowd was solid blue.
This had all the signs of a good game. Georgetown ranked #1 in the
state and Barbers Hill ranked #5. Both teams with outstanding coaches
leading their teams and both schools with an outstanding girls
basketball program. What followed next in just 4 quarters and 32
minutes of basketball was incredible. Just to get to the bottom line,
without making you teasing you anymore, the Georgetown Lady Eagles 44 –
Barbers Hill Lady Eagles 42. For those that want more detail, read
below. You just had to be there and hopefully the words below can
explain why.

The game started out a little slow with both teams missing their shots
and making little mistakes on offense. But, Georgetown still managed to
take the lead at 7-0 with 4 ½ minutes to go in the first quarter. It
seemed like there was a lid on the basket for Barbers Hill until they
hit a 3 pointer at the two minute mark. It must have been catchy
because Georgetown did not score for the rest of the quarter. BH would
score 4 more points and the game was tied at 7-7.

The second quarter started out with BH hitting another 3 to take the
lead 10-7. The defenses were doing their job especially for BH who were
just clinging onto GT as they tried to get the open shot. This resulted
in some missed shots and a low scoring quarter, but every time GT would
get the lead, here would come a 3 pointer from down town. The score at
halftime was GT 18  BH 16. Fans from both teams took a little break and
were buzzing over the close game.

In the third quarter the scoring continued to be spotty with both teams
playing hardnosed defense. Georgetown would grab the lead, and then
here would come a 3 pointer to keep BH in the game. GT was having
trouble with their offense and on defense just couldn’t keep a fast
passing team from getting open for those 3 pointers. So at the end of 3
quarters Georgetown found their selves behind by one point 24 – 25. A
little incredible since all year at this point of the game the starters
were resting and the reserves were in the game with big leads.

But, then things got worse, in the beginning of the 4th quarter BH went
on a little run which included some great 3 pointers and took a nine
point lead at 37-28 with just a little over 6 minutes left in the game.
Was this the end of the road for the #1 team in the state. What
happened from there on out was highly exciting and incredible. The
Georgetown Lady Eagles who had played this far with only 6 players
seeing action, reached down and played from that point on from the
heart.

It was so exciting that this reporter could hardly keep track of play.
With 3 minutes and 18 seconds to go GT stilled trailed by 6 at 31-37,
but momentum started to change as the team went into full court
pressure. With a little under two minutes to play they tied the game at
37-37. Then they took the lead at 39-37. With around 1 minute to go, GT
had the lead 41- 39 and were at the foul line shooting a 1 on 1. The
first shot went in to make it 42-39 with under 18 seconds to go. But,
the second shot fell short and down the court came Barbers Hill with
one last desperation 3 point shot which did not go in, but a GT
defender was a little too aggressive and fouled the shooter. The BH
player stepped to the line and calming put in the first shot, then the
second, and then the third with fans screaming after each point.
Unbelievably the game was tied again with less than 10 second to go at
42-42. Georgetown did not take a time out, Kaitlin Walla drove the
length of the court and threw up a left hand layup that just spun out
with 3 seconds left only to go in the hands of Hayley Hunter with a
great rebound and put back for the winning basket as time ran out.
Georgetown 42 Barbers Hill 40. What a incredible comeback and win.
Barbers Hill gave everything they had only to come up two points short
as their season ended. Those girls, like Georgetown, showed a lot of
heart all night long.

Georgetown is now 30-4 and moves onto the Regional Semifinal game at
the Aldine ISD Campbell Center on Friday, February 22, at 5:00pm. They
will face Rosenburg Lamar Consolidated, winner of District 23. More
detail and any corrections to this article will be made on Wednesday
after this reporter has had a good nights’ sleep. Congratulations
Georgetown Lady Eagles!

Yes, they are as good as advertise. Georgetown is fundamentally sound offensively and defensively.  In regards to Georgetown's offense, if your team's defensive principles are not tight, Georgetown will expose those weaknesses and get high percentage shots from its guards and posts.  In regards to Georgetown's defense, if your team can't neutralize Georgetown's size, pressure, and faster pace game, scoring can be somewhat problematic.
The players are disciplined, play hard from beginning to end, and the team is well coached.

how many points did Mckenzi May have? last year she scorched Ozen with 3s in the regional final.
