Video: Waseca beats Marshall 103-100 in Minnesota Class AA sectional playoff gameEpic contest featured four overtimes, three buzzer beaters.One of the great games in NCAA Tournament history came in 1992 when Duke beat Kentucky 104-103 in overtime on Christian Laettner's unforgettable shot at the buzzer.
Thursday night in Minnesota,
Waseca outlasted
Marshall 103-100 in a Class AA sectional playoff game that may go down as the Gopher State's own version of Duke-Kentucky.
In fact, Waseca-Marshall may have even surpassed Duke-Kentucky in terms of drama.
The contest included four overtimes and three buzzer beaters — including a game-tying shot by Waseca at the end of the third overtime and game-winner in the fourth.
The signature moment of the contest came at the end of the third overtime when
Nick Dufault hit a 3/4-court shot to extend the game.
Dufault — a 6-foot senior — finished with 43 points while
Malik Willingham added 21.
Cole Streich, who authored the game-winner, also scored 11.
