Cody Zeller leads Washington to 3A title, 65-62 in OT

In what will go down as one of the most exciting state final games in recent history (and maybe ever), Cody Zeller and the Washington Hatchets knocked off Gary Wallace, 65-62 in overtime, to win the Class 3A state title.

Zeller scored a team-high 20 points and grabbed 26 rebounds, tying the 3A title game rebounding record set by Gerry Hall of Muncie South in 1999. The 6-9 junior hit just 4 of 15 field goals, but made 11 of 17 free throws.

The win gave Washington its third state title this decade.

Branden Dawson, a junior wing for Wallace with an offer from IU, scored a game-high 22 points to go along with 11 rebounds, but missed two 3-pointers in the closing seconds that would have tied the game.

Cody Zeller leads Washington to a title
Through all the theatrics, dramatics and controversial calls on both sides, Washington High School’s boys’ basketball team tried its best to stay composed on Saturday night in the Class 3A state championship game. When it was over, junior center Cody Zeller had attained what both of his brothers had achieved, just a year ahead of schedule. Older brothers Luke and Tyler led the Hatchets’ boys basketball team to state titles as seniors in 2005 and 2008, respectively. On Saturday, Cody scored 20 points and tied a state finals record with 26 rebounds in Washington’s 65-62 overtime victory over Gary Wallace.
