Binghamton-based 7s Win Sayre Tourney Bracket
A team of Binghamton-based 7th-graders competed in a one-day tournament Saturday, February 12, in Sayre, Pa., and the team won both its games, topping Sayre and Horseheads.

The team led 23-2 after the first quarter against Sayre, then cruised to a 62-22 victory. But the second game was much tighter, with Binghamton taking a dramatic last-second win, 54-53.

In that game, Binghamton trailed by 9 points in the first couple minutes of the first quarter, but outscored Horseheads 20-10 the rest of the way. Latrel McFarlane scored 6 of his 12 points in the final 1:30 to propel Binghamton to the win.

His field goal at the 1:30 mark got Binghamton to within 51-49. Thirty-five seconds later, McFarlane was fouled and converted both free throws to tie the game with 55 seconds to go. Wyatt Whitmore hit the second of two free throws with 21 second left (Binghamton led 52-51), but Horseheads scored in the paint to take a 53-52 lead with 10 seconds left.

Binghamton’s Nate Gaster drove the lane with 4 seconds left, but his shot was off to the left. It hit the backboard and caromed to McFarlane, who was in position on the lower left-side block. McFarlane grabbed the offensive rebound and his put-back went through the net as the horn sounded with Binghamton the 54-53 winner.
