This past Thursday, January 23, the Blue Wave Boys
Basketball team lost on a last-second buzzer-beater three pointer to the
Trinity Catholic Crusaders. The Wave held a slight lead for nearly the entire
game and rallied behind the massive turnout from the DHS student section.
Senior Matt Staubi led all scorers with 25 points and was complemented by
senior Chima Azuonwu’s double-double performance. Nearly everyone who attended
the game thought that it was all over with 15 seconds left and a 6-point Darien
lead, but after a few missed free throws and a crucial travelling violation,
Trinity was put into position to take a last second desperation shot. Coach
Kyle Marian was stunned at the result but knows that his team is capable of
bouncing back from such a stunning loss, saying, “This is routine for us in a
sense that you get used to the adversity.”
