Royals win seventh consecutive regional title, edge Indian Creek

HINCKLEY – Hinckley-Big Rock's Jacqueline Madden and Lauren Paver got some timely advice from an unlikely source late in overtime of Saturday's Class 1A Hinckley-Big Rock Regional final against Indian Creek.

With the Royals trailing by one and the game delayed due to an injury, Madden and Paver gathered close to the far sideline as former H-BR teammate Katie Hollis yelled from the front row of the stands for both players to "keep driving."

On the ensuing Royals possession, Paver did exactly that, attacking the basket for the go-ahead layup with 90 seconds remaining. Madden then came up with a steal and was fouled on her layup attempt, but made both foul shots as the Royals hung on for a 46-45 victory over their Little Ten rival.
