With 9.2 seconds left in regulation and a three-point lead on Monday night, Brentwood coach Ryan Bailey told his players repeatedly during a timeout that there were two fouls to give, so foul to prevent a three-point shot from Windward.

He then watched Louis Bond of Windward get off an uncontested three from the top of the key just before the buzzer sounded to send the game into overtime.

“I should have fouled,” said sophomore AJ Okoh, who was guarding Bond to start the play.

It ended up working out for the Eagles, who won in overtime 70-66 to improve to 22-3 and 5-0 in the Gold Coast League.

Okoh finished with 28 points, including a 12-point barrage in the third quarter that saved Brentwood when 6-foot-8 freshman center Shalen Sheppard went to the bench with three fouls. Sheppard finished with 18 points.

“I know we had a lot of brain lapses,” Sheppard said. “But we didn’t get mad at each other and that helped us.”

Jeremiah Hampton scored 25 points for Windward (17-5, 2-1).

Asked what he learned from the game, Okoh said, “To fully listen.”

Santa Margarita 67, St. John Bosco 66: Brayden Kyman delivered a game-winning three for the Eagles, creating more uncertainty in the Trinity League race. Kaiden Bailey finished with 19 points and Kyman 17. Elzie Harrington scored 19 points for St. John Bosco.
