FAIRVIEW — Braelee Quinn scored a game-high 16 points, Summer Mendoza recorded a clutch steal in the waning seconds of double overtime, and West Point’s varsity girls held off Class 5A No. 4 Fairview for a 45-44 road victory on Friday night.

The Warriors improved to 7-3 with the win, while the Aggies dropped their first game of the season to fall to 9-1.

West Point held a 39-34 lead with less than 10 seconds left in regulation, but Jayla Gorham drained a pair of free throws and — following a jump ball and change of possession — Emma Garcia swished a 3-pointer at the horn to send the game into its first extra period.

The teams traded free throws during that stretch, and Fairview had a chance to end it from the charity stripe with 3.1 seconds remaining.

The Aggies, however, couldn’t covert the 1-and-1, and the game stayed tied at 42-all heading into the second overtime.

Quinn’s 3-pointer put West Point ahead 45-42 before a pair of Sadie Smith free throws drew the home team back to within a point.

With 16 seconds remaining, Fairview got the ball back following a pair of missed free throws by the Warriors.

Mendoza, though, squashed any thoughts of a game-winning shot with a steal and heave as the buzzer sounded.

“It’s a win,” West Point coach John Welborn said. “I’ll take it, but it was ugly. We’ve got to shoot the ball better and make our foul shots.”

Ryleigh Jones joined Quinn in double figures with 12 points, while Mendoza (eight), Hallie Wheeler (five), Ella Minck (two) and Liberty Shadix (two) also contributed offensively.

Smith, meanwhile, led Fairview with 14 points, while Gorham (11) and Morgan Lindsay (10) also provided double-digit outings.

Garcia added seven, and Reagan Dunkin tossed in two.
