Barret Boesiger scores his only points of the game as time expires to send Pinnacle Bank Arena into absolute pandemonium.
The NCAA Tournament doesn't begin until next week but the madness of March officially tipped off Thursday in Nebraska with a buzzer beater that won't be topped in 2025.
Pius X was setting up to try its own game-winner but things went awry and
Boesiger was in position to turn the table for Norris (25-2), which
advances to tomorrow's semifinals against the winner of
Douglas County West (Valley) and
Skutt Catholic (Omaha).
See the incredible finish in the video courtesy of the NFHS Network. The shot will go down in history in Nebraska and the reaction of the crowd says it all about how special high school sports can be.
Despite being held to three points Thursday, Boesiger is a normally a big part of the offense for Norris. The 6-foot senior is second on the team in scoring at 13.7 points per game with a high of 22 in December against Bennington.
