ST. CHARLES – Kyle Swanson made sure things started and ended well for the St. Charles North boys basketball team Friday in a 45-44 overtime victory against Batavia on senior night.

In between, the visiting Bulldogs rallied from a 13-point deficit to force the extra session in the battle of Upstate Eight Conference River Division rivals.

“I think Batavia came out the second half and turned it up a notch as far as their effort or intensity,” North coach Tom Poulin said. “We kind of took a step backwards and it ended up just being a dogfight. Luckily, we pulled it out.”
