Marble Falls High School senior Josh Whitecotton played the hero on Tuesday, Jan. 28 with his steal and layup at the buzzer to give the boys basketball team a 45-43 win over Rouse in Leander.
The win gives the Mustangs their second district victory and keeps them in the hunt for the playoffs, albeit a long shot. Head Coach Travis Crain said their 2-5 district record is not indicative of how the boys have played this season.
