Ross Fauquier scored what he called the “hardest two points of his life,” and led Lackawanna Trail to a 74-53 win over Mountain View on Tuesday in a Lackawanna Division IV boys basketball game.
In the third quarter, after missing three straight layups, Fauquier went to the free-throw line and connected on both for the 1,000th point in his career.
“This means a lot to me,” said Fauquier, who finished with 17 points. “It is every basketball player’s dream, I think, when they start playing to score 1,000 points.
“I just have to thank all of my coaches and teammates who have helped me achieve my dream.”
