With three Bishop Guertin defenders draped over him, senior Alex La Rosa hit a fall-away 3-pointer with 3/10ths of a second remaining to give Salem a heart-stopping 48-47 victory over the previously unbeaten Cardinals.
La Rosa's bomb was the only fourth quarter field goal for the Blue Devils (3-7) as BG (6-1 in Class L) took its only lead of the night on a bucket with eight seconds left.
Sparking Salem's top defensive effort of the season were junior forwards Mike Lorenz (10 points and 9 rebounds) and Joe Gallant (5 blocks and 11 boards to go with 9 points).
