FAIR HAVEN — The Middlebury Union High School boys’ basketball team edged host Fair Haven in overtime on Monday, 54-53.
The Slaters’ Alex Fontaine forced OT with a three-pointer to beat the fourth-quarter buzzer, but the Tigers came out on top of a seesaw overtime.
Fontaine finished with a game-high 21, and Cameron Hughes chipped in with 14 for Fair Haven, which dropped to 3-4 heading into a Friday home game with Vergennes.
Oakley Gordon (16) and Bobby Ritter (14) sparked the Tiger offense. MUHS has now won four of five games after an 0-2 start to climb over .500 at 4-3. The Tigers face an undefeated Burr & Burton team at home on Saturday at 12:30 p.m.
