Jordan Henderson’s layup at the buzzer lifted Evergreen to a 64-63 win over host Prairie at the Falcon Holiday Classic.
In a game that was close the entire way, Prairie took a 63-62 lead when Michael Stockbridge hit two free throws.
On Evergreen’s last possession, Prairie was wary of Robert Franks. The Washington State signee had a game-high 29 points.
Instead, Greg Washington drove toward the basket and passed to Henderson.
“He made a great pass,” Prairie coach Kyle Brooks said. “We doubled on Franks. They looked to him first.”
Stockbridge led Prairie with 22 points.
“It was a great game by both teams,” Brooks said.
Evergreen improved to 3-3 overall. Prairie fell to 4-4.
