The agony of defeat; buzzer-beater sinks Spartans at the Classic


Luke Landus in disbelief
BLOOMINGTON - SJO's Luke Landrus reacts after El Paso-Gridley's Chancesaye Maxon, Jr.'s last second three-pointer goes through the net in hit team's State Farm Classic finale on Saturday. Up by two and with less than two seconds on the game clock, St. Joseph-Ogden lost the back-and-forth game by one point when the 20-footer was good just before the buzzer, 49-48. More photos coming after the new year.
