Three OVAC boys' basketball teams will take part in the Ohio regional tournaments next week. River joined St. Clairsville and Martins Ferry in the sweet 16 club with a 56-49 overtime win over two-time defending Division IV state champion Hiland in the district final at Meadowbrook Saturday.
River fell behind 14-2 early on, but rallied to pull to within four at the half, 25-21.
Brett Price led the Pilots with 31 points. He scored the first four points in overtime at the free throw line, and had a key assist to Cody Caldwell to extend the late lead to 6 points.
The Pilots will now face Youngstown Christian in the regional semifinals at the Canton Memorial Fieldhouse on Tuesday night at 6:15 p.m.
The following night, Martins Ferry meets Ironton in a Division III regional semifinal at Ohio University.
Then on Thursday night at 6:15, St. Clairsville takes on New Philadelphia at Ohio University in Division II action.
