LINCOLN - Some late-game heroics lifted Sidney into the next round of the Class C1 girls' basketball tournament.

Senior Karsyn Leeling's three-pointer with eight seconds left proved to be the game-winner, as the Red Raiders took down 2023 Class C1 runner-up Adams Central 40-38.

The win lifts Sidney to the semi-finals for the second straight year but for the first time as a Class C1 school. The Red Raiders lost in the Class B semi-finals in 2023.
