In the OT period Devin Hall scored five key points and with eight seconds left, as the Panthers trailed by one, Matt Gaither sunk two free throws to give the Panthers the 47-46 victory. Gaither would finish the game with 20 points as he led all scorers and Christian Ito provided a spark off the bench for Upper St. Clair as he netted 10 points. The win moves the Panthers to 9-6 (4-1) and they will be back in action on Saturday when they will travel to Allderdice to take on the Dragons. Tip off is scheduled for 3:30 PM.
