A piece of history and an all-time classic capped a week of basketball in Herculaneum.
The Steelville Cardinals knocked off the Grandview Eagles 46-28 in the Class 3 District 3 girls’ championship game, while the St. Pius Lancers edged out Steelville 45-44 in a thrilling boys’ title game Friday night.
The girls’ game was a defensive, tight-knit affair in the first half, but freshman Tobi Pennock came off the bench to give the Cardinals a huge lift.
