About this Article

Free throws sunk Cary-Grove on Saturday. Three days later, they were a life preserver for the Trojans, who spent the better part of their most recent practice becoming one with the free throw line. "We practiced free throws a lot in practice (on Monday)," Cary-Grove senior center Dean Lee. "It obviously showed tonight." The Trojans knocked down 21 of 24 free throws against host Grayslake Central on Tuesday and needed just about every last one of them en route to a 61-59 Fox Valley Conference crossover victory.
