Wait, wait, wait, win: Lone Peak beats Fremont on last-second shot in double overtime for Utah 6A girls’ basketball title

By Julie Jag Lone Peak guard, Makeili Ika , celebrates their 67-65 double-overtime win over Fremont, in the 6A State Championship game, at the Marriott Center in Provo, on Saturday, March 5, 2022. Ika hit the winning shot with .5 seconds left on the clock.The players whittled away their time, picking their perfect moment to take their one shot. The shot to rule the state.

Turns out, she could. The guard, generously listed at 5-foot-5, banked in a running jumper from just outside the paint with less than a second left to lock in championship after a 67-65 battle against the Silverwolves. The scenario that put the Knights on top played out almost exactly like their semifinal win against Herriman. In that game, Lone Peak had whittled away roughly 1:30 of game time before the Ika drove to her right and sunk a last-second basket. Against Fremont, the Knights got the ball with two minutes to play and the score tied at 65. Again, Ika got the ball with about 3 seconds to play, found her opening on the right, drove and scored.

This time, Fremont inbounded the ball after a Lone Peak game-tying shot, 58-58, with 1:43 left. It, too, bided its time. With two players headed to play Division I basketball next season on their roster, and a considerable size advantage, the Silverwolves liked their chances. But, when their burst also failed to produce a score.
