In wins over Miami Trace and Vinton County in less than one week, the Washington Blue Lions looked like they were almost unbeatable. That is, until (6-3) Hillsboro pulled off an upset of (7-2) Washington in their FAC makeup game Thursday, 62-50.
The outcome hands (8-1) Miami Trace at least a share of the FAC title, who will host Hillsboro in their conference wrap-up February 13th.
Washington’s only remaining chance to share the FAC title would be for Hillsboro to pull off more magic with a win at Miami Trace on February 13th and the Blue Lions conclude with a win at Jackson.
In Thursday’s win, Washington held a slim 6-5 lead after the first quarter. But that was the only period in which Hillsboro was outscored, as they won the second quarter 16-12, 19-13 in the third, then 22-19 in the final quarter for the 62-50 victory.
Miami Trace’s only loss in the FAC has been to Washington, with the Panthers claiming the first match up.
