Nevada outscored Webb City 19-9 in the final quarter to escape with a one-point victory in both teams' final game of the Frontenac Shootout on Saturday.

The game was tied at 48-48 when Webb City's Nickhai Howard received a pass from Mekhi Garrard and drained a 12-foot jumper to put the Cardinals up by two points with less than eight seconds remaining.

However, Nevada responded out of a timeout as Logan

Applegate received an inbounds pass and went the full length of the court before draining a college- range 3 from near the Nevada bench with about a second to go. Webb City's ensuing desperation heave went unsuccessful as the Tigers escaped with the 1-point win.

"I'd definitely say it was out best win of the season," Nevada coach Shaun Gray said. "I think Webb City is ranked top-5 in Class 5, and they obviously beat us earlier this season in the Kaminsky Classic. It's a good win. We're 11-5 now, and hopefully our best basketball is still ahead of us."

The Cardinals (11-3) held a 26-23 lead at halftime and 41-32 lead at the end of the third quarter before the Tigers (11-5) went on their fourth-quarter surge.

Howard led the Webb City scoring with 18 points, while Garrard scored 13 points and Trenton Hayes nine points.

For Nevada, Applegate finished with four 3-pointers and led the team in scoring with 25 points. Logan McNeley scored 11 points and Ben Hines added six points.

Up next, Webb City plays at Harrisonville on Tuesday and Nevada plays host to Carthage on Friday.
