BRECKENRIDGE — Leading Windthorst by 15 points heading into the fourth quarter, the Albany boys basketball team appeared poised to cruise to a comfortable victory in its playoff opener Monday at the Breckenridge ISD Athletic and Fine Arts Center.

But a furious comeback by the Trojans left the Lions anything but comfortable over the final eight minutes of the game.

Coach Ryder Peacock’s squad found itself tied at 47-all with just over two minutes remaining and led by just a single bucket (49-47) until a pair of Wyatt Windham free throws all but iced things with 14.1 seconds to play, allowing the Lions to escape with a nerve-wracking 51-50 bi-district win.
