Grace Community clinched the No. 2 seed in the TAPPS 2-4A District tournament by outslasting Dallas Christian 72-69 on Friday at Grace Gym.

The game needed two overtimes before the Cougars (24-4, 7-1) were able to emerge with a three-point win.

Grace thought it had the game sewn up in regulation, but the visitors hit a 3-pointer with one second remaining to tie the game and send it to OT.

The same thing occurred in the first extra session with another trey by Dallas Christian with six seconds remaining tied the game.

Finally, in the second OT, a turnover forced by Grace in the closing seconds took away Dallas Christian’s chance to tie the game again.

Trevor Gunter scored 26 points for the Cougars with Phillip McKinney (19) Verlo Levels (13 points, 10 rebounds) and Andrew Melhard (12 points) all turning in double-figure efforts in the win.
