OWINGS MILLS, Md. - The Stevenson men's basketball team cut a 23-point second half deficit down to five, but couldn't get any closer as Marymount (Va.) hit 6-of-8 from the free throw line in the final minute to escape Owings Mills Gymnasium with a 95-88 victory Saturday in the season finale for both teams.

The Mustangs (6-19, 2-14 CAC) were led by a career-high 39 points from sophomore Brett Burrier (Westminster/Winters Mill), the second-highest single game total in school history behind Wade Henninger who scored 44 against Salisbury on Feb. 16, 2004.

Burrier also grabbed eight rebounds while totaling his fifth game of the season with at least 20 points and his 15th out of 20 in double figures.

Senior Greg Woody (Baltimore/Mount Saint Joseph) scored 11 points in his final game while Joe Hindle (Clarksville/River Hill) added 13 points.

Stevenson opened the game on a 19-6 run over the first seven minutes and held a 26-16 advantage with 8:58 remaining after Burrier hit the first of his six three-pointers.

However, Marymount (6-19, 4-12 CAC) took control from there, outscoring the Mustangs 40-7 over the next 14 minutes to take its largest lead of the game at 23 points, 56-33 with 16:28 left in the second half.

Trailing by 17 with 2:29 remaining, Stevenson started its comeback led by Burrier who scored 11 points over the final three minutes, nine of which came on three, three-pointers.

In a span of just 1:50, the two teams combined for 24 points as the Mustangs went on an 18-6 run to cut the deficit to only five, 91-86 with 39 seconds remaining.

After sophomore Laron Knight (Waldorf/Thomas Stone) hit two free throws to cut the lead to five, the Saints had a chance to ice the game after Mac Kennedy got behind Stevenson's full court pressure, but he missed a lay-up at the other end and Knight got the rebound.

Looking to cut it to a one possession game, Knight missed a three-pointer with 24 seconds remaining and Tarek Ammoury got the rebound and was fouled, sending him to the free throw line for two shots.

Ammoury hit 5-of-6 from the line in the final 42 seconds while Marymount was 8-for-10 in the last 1:33 to preserve the lead and its sixth win.

Playing in his final game, Woody's career came to an abrupt halt when he was whistled for his fifth foul with 3:50 remaining. The senior finished his career second on the school's all-time scoring list with 1,515 points and as the career leader with 191 three-pointers. He also appeared in 104 games, second only to Anthony Fitzgerald's record of 107.
