Hoosic Valley 56, Cambridge 54

Put a cape on him. Pat Lanoue was Hoosic Valley's superhero on Tuesday night, hitting two clutch, buzzer beating shots to end both the third and fourth quarters in Hoosic Valley's 56-54 upset victory over Cambridge.

This was easily the best game I've seen this season. In the first half, each team played a little sloppy. Hoosic Valley missed a number of open shots and Cambridge turned the ball over too many times.
In the 3rd, Cambridge's Shea Bromirski hit a 3 to tie the game at 34, then Lanoue came right back with his own at the buzzer to put Hoosic Valley up 37-34 going into the final quarter.

The gym was electric the entire game - the lead switching hands or reverting to a tie 7 times in the fourth quarter.
Bromirski scored 15 in the fourth and Lanoue added only 6, but his final bucket was gigantic.
