Highlights: At Laureldale, the Muhls (6-1) survived a missed shot in the final seconds of regulation and got a blocked shot from Vaughn Carraway in the final seconds of overtime to defeat the Hawks (3-4) in a non-league game.

Derek Zeller scored a game-high 25 points, helping the Muhls build an 11-point lead in the first half and again in the third quarter.

The Hawks stormed back in the final quarter, getting five points apiece from Ian Shollenberger and Lavell Belton in the period.

Hamburg held the ball for most of the final minute in regulation to set up the last shot, but Marvin Cottrell missed on a drive.

Zeller and Carraway scored early in overtime to put the Muhls back on top. Cottrell went for a potential game-tying 3 in the final seconds of OT but saw Carraway swat it away.

Kevin Botch finished with 10 points for the Muhls, hitting a pair of clutch 3's in the final period.

Jared Palubinski scored a team-high 14 for the Hawks.

The Muhls were good on 15-of-26 free throws. The Hawks went to the line just four times.
