Sheldon edges Folsom in OT to advance to section title game

The Sheldon Huskies punched their ticket to the Sac-Joaquin Boys Division I Section title game with a 69-65 overtime victory of the Folsom Bulldogs on Wednesday night.

Playing in front of a sell-out crowd at Sheldon High School in South Sacramento, the Huskies, were able to hold-off Folsom's late surge and notch their 19th straight victory.

Kaito Williams and Justin Nguyen scored 14 points each to lead the Huskies over the Bulldogs. Folsom's Elijay Gallegos scored a game-high 24 points in the loss.

Top-seeded Sheldon (26-4) will now face No. 2 Modesto Christian on Saturday at the University of Pacific in Stockton. The Crusaders defeated No. 3 Capital Christian 69-59, on Wednesday night.
