Northview Beats Holmes County In District Tourney; Championship Tonight
February 7, 2015
The Northview Chiefs are headed toward a district basketball championship showdown tonight after a close 48-46 win over Holmes County Friday night in Bratt.
The Chiefs led 27-20 at halftime. Holmes County took a 31-29 lead with 2:11 remaining in the third period, but that lead was short-lived as the Chiefs regained the advantage by the end of the third. By 4:31 in the fourth, the teams were tied, but Holmes County moved ahead 46-40 with 1:45 to go. The Chiefs were not going down without a fight, powering back to a 46-46 tie with 1:01 remaining in the game, and sinking the game winning shot just before the buzzer.
In the first game of the tournament Friday night at Northview, Chipley beat Baker 56-32.
The Chiefs will host Chipley at 7:00 Saturday night for the district championship. Both teams, regardless of the outcome of Saturday night’s game, will advance to the regionals — the winner at home and the loser on the road.
