Boys basketball regionals Carmel holds off Lafayette Jefferson for regional championship

By RICHIE HALL LOGANSPORT - Whether it’s on offense or on defense, Carmel always seems to be able to make that “one more play” that wins games. Saturday evening, the Class 4A No. 2-ranked Greyhounds made one more play on both ends of the floor, and that re- sulted in another regional championship. With his team trailing No. 7-ranked Lafayette Jefferson 49-48 and 17 seconds left in the Logansport regional title game, Carmel senior Brian Waddell made two free throws to put the ‘Hounds up by one. The Bronchos tried for one last shot, but Carmel senior Connor Gioia tipped the ball away. The ball eventually landed in the hands of Greyhounds junior Josh Whack, who held on to it until the final buzzer. That gave Carmel the regional champion- ship, 50-49 over a determined Bronchos squad that twice came back from large deficits to challenge the ‘Hounds. Carmel’s victory over Jefferson was an instant classic. But don’t forget about the Greyhounds’ semi-final game. That was another remarkable perfor- mance, one where Carmel shut down No. 1-ranked Homestead 60-49 with yet an- other solid defensive effort, handing the Spartans their first, and ultimately only, loss of the year.

The Greyhounds answered that with a 6-0 run; Suder scored four of those points and Williams the other two. A layin from Waddell finished the first quarter and put Carmel up 12-4. Homestead made its own run in the second quarter, using a 9-2 stretch to get within 14-13. Waddell got the ‘Hounds out of trouble with a floater, then Wil- liams made a layin to put Carmel up 18- 13.
