Girls in final for third time in four seasons
In a dramatic finish, the Morton girls basketball team kept its season alive Feb. 16.
On a Caitlyn Vandermeer basket just before the buzzer, the Potters eliminated No. 1 seed Limestone, 44-42, in the semifinals of the Class 3A Bloomington Regional.
After calling a timeout, the fourth-seeded Potters inbounded the ball with 3.4 seconds left. The pass deflected off the hands of Sarah Livingston, Vandermeer scooped it up and banked in a seven-footer to stun the Rockets.
