Oakland takes out Stewarts Creek to reach region finals

Tre Jones hit a buzzer-beating 3-pointer to help send Oakland High to the finals of the Region 4 tournament with a 54-43 win Tuesday night.

By the way, that critical shot was at the end of the first half.

A fired-up Stewarts Creek had battled back from a six-point first quarter start to take the lead over the Patriots, 21-19, with just seconds left in the second quarter.

That's when Jones hit the back-breaking trey with no time on the clock to give Oakland the 22-21 halftime lead. The Red Hawks would not be able to threaten again, and saw their impressive postseason run come to an end.
