HEADLAND – Rod Jackson of Houston Academy toed the free throw line with 1.1 seconds left and the game on the line against Headland at Steve Williams Arena on Thursday
“I hope I don’t miss them,” Jackson said after the game of what was going through his mind while he was getting ready to shoot.
Houston Academy had the ball under the Headland basket with 4.9 seconds left after the Rams, up 47-46 at the time, missed two free throws and the ball went off a Headland player out of bounds following a wild scramble underneath the goal. Around midcourt, Mitchell threw long for Jackson who had sprinted down the court and gotten underneath the goal. As the ball came to Jackson, a Headland player ran into him and a foul was called to set up the 1-1 free throw opportunity.
With Headland in possession, Houston Academy fouled with 22 seconds left, but it wasn’t a free throw opportunity. On the ensuing inbounds near midcourt, Houston Academy’s Corey Campbell came up with a steal on the inbounds pass and then was fouled with 13.2 seconds as he drove the lane. Down by 7 at the break, Headland came out strong in the third quarter and took the lead at 30-29 when Cornelius Arnold scored on an inside basket.
