Shenendehowa's Emily Weber dribbles around Shaker's Rhiannon Spencer during Friday's Suburban Council North Division contest at Shaker High School. Weber was the one tabbed to take the last-second shot, but Meg Rogers got open and sank it instead, lifting the Lady Plainsmen to a 49-47 victory. (All photos by J.S. Carras - The Record).

With 1.7 seconds remaining in a tie game, Shen's Andrea Mangione was trying to make an inbound pass along the baseline intended for Emily Weber. Weber, however, couldn't get open, and as a five-second violation neared, she passed to Meg Rogers, who sank the game-winner as time expired.

"As soon as I got the ball, I just shot," Rogers said. "I knew it had to go in."

Shaker's Lauren Woods lines up for a jumper during Friday's game. Woods finished with three points and two rebounds, but her replacement off the bench in the fourth quarter, Madison Rowland, sparked a Blue Bison comeback.

Shaker trailed by 15 points with 5:20 to play but made an incredible rally to tie the game at 45 with 1:25 to go in the fourth quarter.

Adrianne Devine scored 20 points and made eights steals for Shaker (8-4, 10-4).

"Adrianne Devine, she was the kid who came out ready to go from the get-go," said Shaker head coach Emily Caschera. "She was the one that we tried to get everyone else on her back. She did it all for us. I wish at the end there were four other Adriannes out there tonight, for her intensity, for her desire. She was all over the court."

MacKenzie Rowland added five points, nine rebounds and five blocks for Shaker.

Shenendehowa (10-2, 10-2) is playing without point guard Marissa Ray, who is nursing an injured ankle. The Lady Plainsmen, more than ever, have adopted a selfless, defense-minded style of play that allows everyone to contribute to the best of their abilities.

"We play better when we play as a team and don’t rely on just one person or another," Rogers said. "I think tonight we tried to play as a team and I don’t think anyone, totally, was the star."

About a decade ago, Caschera was one of Strube's top players on dominant Shenendehowa teams. She played at the University of New Hampshire before getting the varsity head coaching job at Shaker last season.
