On the Sidelines with Dan Sousa - Ohhhhh PFalls! Panthers Historic Win was One of a Kind Drama

On the Sidelines with Dan Sousa
(Mar. 16, 2010) - Ohhhhh PFalls!

To come so far and fall just short would have been heartbreaking but Potomac Falls High School -- in a bid to become the first team in Loudoun history to win a Virginia High School League boys basketball state title -- appeared at times Saturday as if they couldn't quite knock off a Broadway squad that was cheered on by their entire town.

Starting four juniors and a sophomore -- just two seniors on the roster -- would have been an easy excuse for Potomac Falls to not quite reach the mountaintop and Broadway with three key senior starters had been waiting almost as long, with its only title coming in 1926.

The Siegel Center for the Division 4 final was a sea of green, looking like Dublin on St. Patrick's Day, as it appeared that almost the entire town of 3,200 had made the trip from Broadway in the Shenandoah Valley and with their Fighting Gobblers up by four points with 1:39 to play, surely the Panther dream would have to wait a season.

But Ohhhhh PFalls! Here comes Lukas Miahilovich, a 6-foot junior with mad skills, who averaged 26 points a game in the postseason, and he was on his way to matching his jersey number of 33 Saturday as he drove in to cut the lead to two with 1:24 to go.

And there was Mickey Wagenhoffer and Greg Graves trapping the ball as a Broadway ballhandler slipped near the lane and Brendon Chesson took the ball swiftly down the floor and pulled-up in the lane and buried a jumper with 31 seconds to go.

Broadway still had a shot to win it but Chris Knight, who scored a team-high 19 points, had his long jumper miss at the buzzer. And then in the first overtime, the Gobblers had an even better shot to take home the title as Adam Caplinger was fouled with two seconds to go and his team down by one. The first shot missed and the second was good to force a second overtime but only have Mihailovich's three-quarter court shot drew net but just missed the cylinder.

Ohhhhh PFalls! Panther coach Jeff Hawes had been waiting for this moment all of his life and the second overtime was an extension of his 13 years of building the Panther program from scratch. Broadway was spent from not securing its win in regulation or the first overtime and now Mihailovich, as large on court as he was on the arena's overhead big screen, took over and led Potomac Falls to a place no Loudoun team had ever been with a 69-64 win over Broadway.
