Stony Point stuns Brennan on game-winning 3 in Texas high school basketball playoffs
On the first day of March, let the Texas high school basketball madness begin.
Stony Point, ranked No. 3 in Texas and No. 21 in the SBLive/Sports Illustrated Power 25 national rankings, advanced to the UIL Class 6A regional finals Friday night with a game-winning 3 as time expired to beat Brennan, 69-68.
After holding a comfortable lead for most of the game, Stony Point (36-1) found itself down by one point with less than four seconds to go. That's when Devaughn Hueitt stepped up and hit a shot he'll likely never forget.
Uzziah Buntyn tossed a cross-court inbound pass to the junior Hueitt, who drained a three with one second left to put Stony Point ahead 69-68. The clock hit zeros a second later, sending Stony Point one step closer to a state championship.
Stony Point walks off a winner at the buzzer over the Brennan Bears! With @STPTigerHoops down 68-66, gets a 3 pointer at the buzzer from DeVaughn Hueitt to send the Tigers to the Regional Finals!
