Congratulations to the East Boys Basketball team for their thrilling comeback victory Tuesday night over visiting Oak Hills, securing their first win of the 2023-24 season! The contest was an exciting and hard-fought game that showcased East Boys Basketball's usual resilience and determination that we've become so used to watching over the past many years.

Facing a 13-point deficit early in the contest and dealing with the challenge of a key player's injury, the Hawks demonstrated great character in battling from behind throughout the game. The comeback victory, especially in an overtime thriller, was a joy to watch.

Junior Trey Perry's clutch performance (game-high 33 points), sinking two free throws with 2 seconds left in regulation to tie the game at 51 and forcing overtime, highlights the team's ability to perform under pressure. The overall team effort, with outstanding contributions from every player, is a testament to their collective strength and unity.

Senior Bayze Wieland's three-point shot and key plays in overtime, including a critical rebound and successful free throws, played a pivotal role in sealing the victory for East.

The East Boys Basketball team (1-2, 1-1) has a resilient spirit and the ability to overcome challenges. Best of luck to them in their upcoming game this Friday at Colerain, and may the momentum from this thrilling win carry them forward in the season!
