Indoor rainout grounds Guerin Catholic game

The Sectional 24 semi-final game at Shortridge between Guerin Catholic and Brebeuf Jesuit was halted, then postponed due to a leak in the Shortridge gym. The game resumes tonight at 6 p.m. (Richard Torres)

Guerin Catholic was on its way to the Class 3A Sectional 24 championship game at Shortridge Friday night, when the weather intervened.

A leak in the Shortridge gym with 3:12 left in the fourth quarter forced the game to be halted. The Golden Eagles were leading Brebeuf Jesuit 44-34 at that point in time. Eventually, the game was called and will finish tonight at 6 p.m.

Guerin Catholic led 11-7 in the first quarter and held off a Braves comeback in the second period, leading 19-18 at halftime. The Golden Eagles held a 32-29 advantage after three quarters and were running away with the fourth before the contest was stopped.

Kamea Chandler has 11 points and seven assists for Guerin Catholic, with Lucas Parker scoring nine points.

Once the Guerin-Brebeuf game is completed, Bishop Chatard will play Shortridge in the second semi-final. The championship game will now take place at 7 p.m. Monday.
