Lourdes boys on to state after thrilling win By Brad Hartmann Herald contributor

His name is Hayden Jones; his team- mates refer to him as Jonesey. You might as well call him Mr. Oshkosh as Jones delivered the biggest block in Lourdes Academy history sending the Knights back to the Kohl Center in Madison with aspirations of capturing the program’s first WIAA state championship. “It was the best moment of my life. Seeing the students storming the court felt amazing,” said Jones. “I saw him wide open and I knew I had to close out really hard on him. I just jumped as high and as far as I could. I managed to get a couple fingers on it.” The top-seeded Knights (25-1) went on the road and escaped the Neillsville Field- house with a 72-71 WIAA D4 sectional finals victory over Marathon (21-5) Sat- urday afternoon sporting its black and red uniforms. “It was a physical game. They are a great basketball team. They only lost once for a reason,” said Red Raiders senior Carter Hanke. “I am proud of the way we played. We gave it all out there for our team.
