Chartiers Valley junior forward Ava Shazer back-ironed what would have been a game-winning 3-pointer with less than five seconds remaining in regulation. That’s when Natalie Wetzel atoned for the earlier misplays when she pulled down the rebound, was fouled and hit a pair of free throws to close out the victory as Class 6A No. 1 Peters Township (14-0, 5-0) escaped No. 4 Chartiers Valley (10-2, 4-1) with a 53-49 wire-to-wire victory in a battled for first place in Section 2.
