COURT B

Boardwalk Cup Girls Bracket – Council Rock South (Pa.) 48, Holy Spirit 47: Alex Wheatley’s short baseline jump shot off an offensive rebound beat the buzzer and lifted CRS (5-1) to the dramatic victory. Chelsea Allen netted 12 points and Wheatley and Emily Nowicke each added 11 for the winners, who will play in the bracket title game Sunday, Dec. 27 at 9 p.m. Holy Spirit (1-1), which fought back from a 15-point deficit to take a couple of brief leads in the final period, got a game-high 20 points from Joanna Persiano, two of which came on a basket with 18 seconds remaining that had put the Spartans up by a point before Wheatley and CRS stole back the victory at the buzzer. Tenisha Mobley added 14 points in the loss.
