DUNDEE – Casey Brown scored 7 of his 10 points in overtime to help Erie Mason’s boys basketball team outlast Dundee 66-63 in double overtime Tuesday night.

“It was a tremendous game, pretty well played and very physical,” Dundee coach Jay Haselschwerdt said. “Both teams will get better because of this.”

Mason coach Kevin Skaggs called it, “a significant victory over a Dundee team that just defeated a strong Clinton squad.”

Alex Langenderfer scored in the lane with 12 seconds left in regulation to tie the game.

“We were looking to get a drive down the lane by Alex and we had shooters in the corners,” Skaggs said. “But they stopped him and he was able to throw in a floater.”

It was the fourth straight win for Mason (6-3).

Carson Brown led the Eagles with 19 points and Langenderfer finished with 15.

Braiden Whitaker scored 19 and Ethan Layton 14 for Dundee (6-5).
