CALUMET – Okarche High School’s girls basketball team was kept off the free-throw line for more than 31 minutes of its Class A top five showdown with Calumet over the weekend.

However, the Warriors made 3-of-5 shots when they did get to the line in the final 40 seconds to seal a 54-47 revenge victory over the Chieftains.

“The free throws were key at the end,” said Okarche head coach Kelli Krowes-Jennings, whose team lost to Calumet by the same seven-point margin back in November.
