ROXBURY CROSSING, Mass. -- Drury's Brook DiGennaro scored her team's final five points in overtime, including a long 3-pointer with 4 seconds left, to lift the West girls basketball team to an 84-81 win over Metro in the gold medal game of the Bay State Games on Sunday.
DiGennaro, who scored seven of her team-high 27 in the last minute of OT, hit a late layup to tie the game, 81-81.
Then Wilbraham and Monson's A.J. Washington stole the ball and got it to Hampshire's Maddie Pond, who set up DiGennaro above the top of the key for an NBA-range 3-pointer.
Washingto finished with 16 points, and Pond scored 15.
The West squad had 15 3-pointers, including DiGennaro's game-winner.
Earlier on Sunday, Metro defeated West in the teams' final pool play game by a score of 65-52.
Agawam's Natalie Pullen scored eight, and DiGennaro and Pond each had six in that loss.
