Box Score

Box score

YORK, Pa. - Stevenson senior guard Chaise Lancaster (Bowie/Northwestern) scored a career-high 24 points, five of which came in a decisive fourth overtime, as the Mustangs overcame a 20-point deficit en route to a 104-92 victory over York (Pa.) in four overtimes Sunday night in front of 1,545 fans at the Grumbacher Center.

The win came in the longest game in school history for the Mustangs (2-6, 1-1 CAC) and snapped a six-game road losing streak. It also marked the first time since Feb. 18, 2006 in a 113-68 victory over Purchase, a span of 67 games, that Stevenson totaled 100 points.

Senior guard Greg Woody (Baltimore/Mount Saint Joseph) led all scorers with 30 points, the second time this season and fifth in his career that he has scored reached the 30-point plateau. The Mustangs are now 1-4 when Woody scores at least 30.

Trailing 78-75 late in the first overtime, Woody hit a three-pointer to force the second overtime.

All four overtimes were full of excitement that kept fans, players and coaches on edge. Following Woody's three-pointer in the first overtime, neither team was able to gain control in the second as the two combined for just four points with both of Stevenson's coming on free throws and the Spartans' on a layup by Dylan Hoffman just four seconds in.

In the third overtime, the Mustangs seemed to have won 89-87 when Lancaster scored on layup with 0.6 seconds remaining. After the layup, the Mustangs stormed the court and were assessed a technical foul leading to two free throws by the Spartans' Nick Brady to tie the game for the 14th time and send the game to a fourth overtime.

The events only seemed to ignite the Mustangs who proceeded to outscore the Spartans 15-3 in the final period. Stevenson held York to just 1-of-10 shooting from the floor while hitting 8-of-13 from the free throw line.

The Mustangs set the stage for their heroics thanks to a 38-18 run from the 4:39 mark of the first half to the 5:34 mark of the second half when Stevenson erased a 20-point deficit to tie the game at 59-59.

There would be four more ties and four lead changes over the final five-plus minutes with York (3-5, 1-1 CAC) getting a layup and two big blocks from Hoffman in the last minute to send the game into overtime.

Sophomore Greg Collins (Baltimore/Western Tech) finished with 17 points and a game-high 13 rebounds for Stevenson, marking his first career double double. Collins and Lancaster each played 57 of the game's 60 minutes while Woody played in 56.

Junior guard Irvin Jones (Landover/Riverdale Baptist) had a season-high 10 points.

The Spartans had three players register double doubles led by Brady's 27 points and 13 rebounds. Jeremy Keefer totaled 13 points and 12 rebounds while Matt Moley had 10 points and 10 rebounds.

Stevenson will now have a two-week layoff before returning to action at Austin on Saturday, December 20.
