Terry, for some reason I couldn't get that link to work.  I think this one works ok:

Dominique outscored the BYU recruit Noah Hartsock (who were teammates on the the East team) by five points.  Here's a link to a nice article on Noah, who left for Mormon Missions ten hours after last night's game:

Heeding his call

"He will go down as one of the greatest players in Bartlesville history, and that says a lot with all of the tradition here. But he is a better kid off the floor than he is on the floor. He has handled all the attention very well. He always has a smile, is very modest and everyone likes him."

That was evident again when All-State players tried to have the game end with him scoring at the buzzer. In an act of sportsmanship, West guard Tyson Seng of Enid gave Hartsock an alley-oop pass that he layed in the basket, a second after time expired. "

Notice that that was a player from the OTHER team giving Noah the alley-oop!
