SOUTH WAYNE - With 56 seconds to go, Black Hawk senior Jen Wellnitz and the Warriors trailed by just two points against Barneveld, the state's No. 1 ranked Division 5 team. Barneveld (18-0, 10-0 Six Rivers East) got late free throws from seniors Mackenzie Sporle and Hailey Kleppe to escape with a 33-28 win and survive Black Hawk's upset bid.
