Quincy played Branch County rival, Union City, in Big Eight basketball action tonight. The Orioles topped the Chargers in a nail-biter, 47-46. With Quincy leading 47-45,  Union City had to go full-court with two seconds remaining on the clock. The Chargers inbounded the ball and Quincy fouled (they had two fouls to give). In a controversial call, it was decided that the Union City player was in the act of shooting while being fouled, sending him to the line with no time on the clock and three foul shots. He missed the first, made the second, and missed the third, allowing Quincy to hang on for the victory. Coach Rodesiler has deemed the team the "Heart Attack Kids", since they have played in so many close games this season. The team got great contributions from all members of the team.
