With each team nursing three league losses, Georgetown and North Reading hooked up in a must-win for both in order to stay in the race.

The Hornets and Royals played like, scurrying into overtime before Georgetown pulled out a dramatic, 71-65, decision. In the end, North Reading simply had no answer for Neph Carmona, who paced the Royals with 21 points and 25 rebounds.

"The 25 rebounds might be a school record," said Royals coach Mike Rowinski. "I know nobody's had that many since I've been here."

P.J. Dionne piloted the Hornets, who trailed by a dozen at the break, back into the contest with a game-high 24 points. Julio Colon (16 points) and Mike Messman (13) each came up big in the extra session for Georgetown.

Georgetown (51):  Spears 2-2-7, L'Italien 3-3-9, Messman 5-3-13, Harrigan 0-1-1, Reardon 0-0-0, Carmona 8-5-21, Colon 5-6-16, Esposito 2-0-4, Totals 25-20-71
