The OC was OT crazy on Tuesday night as a four local boys hoops games went down to the wire and needed an extra session to decide their winners. In what should come as no surprise to anyone following the local prep scene, two of these contests took place in the ever-hostile OAA Red.

Berkley slid by a gutty-Rochester squad 69-64 in OT on junior forward Justin Peguese's game-winner with five seconds left. Peguese also scored 13 points and grabbed six rebounds. The Bears got a game-high 20 points by Ryan Bush. Nine of Bush's 20 points came in overtime. With the win, Berkley improves to 6-9 overall. Nick O'Neil led Rochester with a team-high 14 points.

Seaholm needed OT to dispatch a feisty-Lake Orion team, 80-78, behind junior forward Shawn Conway's mega-outing of 35 points and 11 rebounds. Conway practically single-handedly won the Maples 14^th game of the season for them. As always, the Crazydef Cuz Connection was in full-effect and Conway's running-mate and blood relative, Richaud Pack put in 21 points in the Seaholm victory.

It was Captain Amazing to the rescue once again for Southfield on Tuesday, as Carlton "Captain Amazing" Brundidge tallied a game-high 25 points to lead the BlueJays to a 78-73 OT home win and ratchet up the team's record to 12-4 overall. Patrick Owneu was a beast in the post for Southfield. The 6-7 promising junior big man continued his strong play for head coach Gary Teasley and posted a double-double of 22 points and 10 boards.

Roy Marble, Jr. lived up to his nickname of "Jesus Shuttlesworth" and played like the second coming once again in Southfield-Lathrup's 69-65 OT 'W' over North Farmington. Jesus er………Marble scored 27 points and took down seven rebounds. Chargers forward, Bryan Coleman looked almost as nice as his Iowa-bound teammate and went for 15 points and 10 rebounds. Lathrup is now 9-7, but 7-3 in the OAA Red and tied for first place. The Raiders drop to 10-6, with five of those losses coming in overtime or at the buzzer.

I also want to shout out to my main homeboys, Connor Boyle at RH Adams, Amir Williams at DCD and Allen "Al B Sure" Robinson at OL St. Mary's, who all came up big in wins for their respective teams.

 Boyle scored a game-high 22 points for the Highlanders in a 58-36 defeat of Troy Athens.

Williams went ballistic all over Davison in a 74-38 win by collecting the first triple-double of his career. DCD's "Big Dandy" registered 20 points, 10 boards, and 10 blocks.

Robinson scored 22 in the Eaglets 67-54 victory over a tough as nails Catholic Central squad.
