As the semi-finals and championship quickly approach, the intramural basketball playoffs are in full swing.
During Tuesday's match-ups, Omega Psi Phi beat Phi Beta Sigma at the buzzer 39-38 during the small fraternity league playoffs.
"It was a thrilling victory; it felt really great," said OPP team member Keydrick Barlow, senior in math. "We really worked hard and it took a lot to pull it out tonight and hopefully we can come back next week and get another win."
The Sigmas were winning 20-18 at halftime, but the two were tied at 32 with four minutes to go.
With only 10.8 seconds to go, the OPP and the Sigmas were tied at 38 until OPP took the lead with a foul shot.
On the next court over, men's intermediate league team Bet We Run
It Up battled against the Bham Boys, ultimately winning 62-40.
"They were a good team and they could shoot, they were shooting all night," said Bet We Run It Up captain Antwuan Brackin, sophomore in physical therapy. "We had to keep up with them."
The semi-finals for men's and women's basketball will be held tonight and the winners of those games will advance to the championship games Sunday.
