Alan Glover connected on his fly route pass to Ish Horn and could finally relax.As Horn rose and dunked on the other end, putting Plymouth Whitemarsh up four points with 12 seconds left, the Colonials’ stiffest test of the season was nearly over. It had pushed them, taken everything they had and challenged them, but the Colonials endured it.
When the last buzzer finally sounded, a couple PW players put their hands in the air. Somehow, they had survived a 64-60 double overtime victory against Bonner & Prendergast at the Pete and Jameer Nelson Classic Friday night on the campus of Jefferson University.
“It feels good that we secured the win but it feels great that we know we can win a close game like that,” PW senior guard Ahmad Williams said. “That was a double overtime war and I’m just happy for my guys.”
