This was a thrilling game. As far as I can remember we have never had a triple OT game, especially in the playoffs. In our first season, Beulah beat First Reformed in double overtime for the championship. As they always say, “It’s a shame someone had to lose this game.” Geno just missed tying it up at the buzzer with a layup attempt that fell short.
