The Southland boys basketball team was able to hold off Hayfield (13-4 overall) 71-69 in Hayfield Thursday.
The Rebels (14-2 overall) knocked down 11 threes on the night and the biggest one came from Nick Boe, as he beat the shot clock buzzer to hit a three and put Southland up 69-66 with two minutes left.
Hayfield ended up with a last second look, but it came up short.
“It was a back and forth game,” Hayfield head coach Chris Pack said. “It was just a great game both ways.”
