Kuemper Catholic At Carroll High
Carroll High 56
Kuemper Catholic 55 (OT)
Both teams looked like they were in good position to get a win in the final minutes as Carroll took control in overtime but couldn’t pull away. Kuemper hung tight and took the lead when Carson Kanne tipped a pass near midcourt to Brock Badding who drained a three from the top of the key, giving Kuemper a 55-54 lead. The Tigers weren’t able to answer and Kuemper got the ball back with a chance to run out the clock. They turned it over, giving Carroll hope. The Tigers called a timeout after getting caught in the lane with the clock running down. They set up a inbound play to get the ball to Evan Hammer. Hammer got the ball, spun into the lane, let the ball go as he was falling backwards, banking it in at the buzzer to give Carroll High a 56-55 win in the season opener for both teams.
Carroll came out firing on all-cylinders on both sides of the court. After Carter Putney scored to put Kuemper up 2-0, Stone Sibenaller hit a three, followed by a back from Evan Hammer, a three from Jared Mohr and another three from Sibenaller. They led 10-2 as Kuemper called a timeout. Carson Kanne hit a three out of the timeout but Jared Mohr knocked down another three for Carroll, followed by back-to-back baskets from Evan Hammer and Carroll led 17-5. Kuemper stayed calm and cut the deficit to 19-12 to end the 1st quarter, then 19-15 after a three from Ben Gerken early in the 2nd quarter. Jared Mohr answered with a pair of threes and Carroll built a 28-15 lead on a bucket by Caden Lengeling. Kuemper started to hit a few shots midway around the 2nd quarter as DJ Vonnahme hit a three, Michael Kasperbauer added a bucket and Hans Kraus cut it to 28-22 with a steal and layup. Evan Hammer added a pair of free throws for Carroll, putting them up 30-23. Michael Kasperbauer made a pair of free throws, then Hans Kraus made a second steal and layup near the buzzer and Kuemper trailed 30-27 at half.
The spark in the 2nd quarter kept going in the 3rd quarter as the Knights went on a 5-0 run to lead 32-30. DJ Vonnahme made it a three point game but Caden Lengeling tied it at 34 and Mac Collison gave Carroll a 35-34 lead but Vonnahme answered for Kuemper and they went back up. The game kept swinging back and forth with Evan Hammer giving Carroll at 38-36 lead as he battled cramps, struggling to get up and down the floor, but giving everything he had. He willed his team to a 42-36 lead. Kuemper answered again with buckets by Vonnahme and Carter Putney who tied the game at 46. Another Hammer bucket kept Carroll ahead, 48-46. Michael Kasperbauer tied the game at 48, then sent the game to overtime with a layup on a nifty dribble drive, tying the game at 50.
Evan Hammer hit a pair of free throws for Carroll to start overtime, then Carter Putney tied it for Kuemper. Hammer scored again and Carroll led 54-52. The Tigers got a stop but a pass that was lofted towards halfcourt hung long enough for Carson Kanne to jump the passing lane, tipping it to Brock Badding, who hit a three from the top of the key. Carroll didn’t score and Kuemper got the ball back and had the shot clock off. The Tigers fouled, forcing Kuemper to inbound the ball on the baseline. The pass went out of bounds, giving the Tigers hope. Carroll set up a play and got into the paint but couldn’t get a shot off, forcing them to call a timeout. They setup what turned into the game winner, getting the ball to Evan Hammer who hit a falling down fadeaway, banking it in at the buzzer to win the game 56-55.
