Sam Dubois isn't one of the big name players for undefeated Champlin Park. But it was his basket that put the 4A tournament's top seed in the 4A semifinals. The game-winner, which came after an offensive rebound, was an off-balance throw -- a throw more than a shot -- from about 28 feet away.
It gave Champlin Park a 53-50 victory over unseeded Chaska in the quarterfinals at Target Center in a game that Chaska led for almost the entire way, including by a margin of 12 points early in the second half. (You can read Jim Paulsen's game story here.)
For Dubois, they were his only points of the game.
