Four quarters weren’t enough to decide which team would earn the first spot in the 2022 UK Healthcare Boy’s Sweet 16 championship. An extra four minutes wound up not being enough, either.
In what came down to the final possession, the No. 1 George Rogers Clark Cardinals (35-1) was able to fend off another upset bid by the No. 9 Lincoln County Patriots (31-7), 54-51, in a thrilling double-overtime contest inside of Rupp Arena on Saturday. As a result, GRC has locked up a bid in the title game, which is set for Saturday night at 7:00 PM.
