BARBERS HILL 52, PORT NECHES-GROVES 49 (2OT)

PORT NECHES — Port Neches-Groves needed to make another clutch stop to force a third overtime, but Barbers Hill didn’t let that happen.

The Eagles took an inbounds pass with 1.85 seconds remaining, and Macaul Martin nailed a three-point shot at the buzzer to stun the Indians on Friday night. It was the second close call of the week that didn’t go PN-G’s way; Little Cypress-Mauriceville dodged PN-G on a missed final shot.

PN-G (0-2) executed good defense to prevent winning baskets at the end of regulation and the first overtime. Outscoring Barbers Hill 10-3 in the third quarter, the game was tied at 39 through 32 minutes and 43 through the first extra period.

Ryan Abel collected 15 rebounds to go with 12 points, and Hunter Curtis netted 10 for the Indians. Jace Seymour and Martin each had 14 to lead Barbers Hill.

PN-G visits Silsbee at 11 a.m. Monday.
