It is not often a boy’s basketball game comes down to the last shot to decide victory. But on Thursday night, Centaurus dug down deep and came away with a 45-44 victory in the CHSAA 4A contest. Centaurus’s Levi Rubin sank a three-pointer with :01 left on the clock to give the Warriors the win. It was the last of 3 three-pointers in the final 1:30 to erase an 8-point deficit to secure the win. The Centaurus students in attendance mobbed Rubin after the clock expired.
Broomfield controlled much of the action after halftime to pull out to a 44-36 lead. But senior center Kevin Bedford was the difference defensively for the Warriors. He blocked several shots down the stretch, paving the way for Centaurus comeback. the Warriors are now 9-0 on the year.
