Fortunately for Norwell, she tied up a Titan on the rebound with the possession arrow pointed Norwell\u2019s way. But shortly after the Knights inbounded the ball, Malone swiped it from Fuelling, who immediately fouled Malone to stop the clock.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With 9.5 to go, Hubble fouled Nola Ravellette. It was Norwell\u2019s fifth foul, sending Ravellette to the line. She hit her first free throw to make it 63-60, but missed the second. Norwell got the rebound and called time out with 5.1 seconds left to set up Fuelling\u2019s final shot.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thornton thought Fuelling did a good job getting the shot off in the tense action in the final few seconds. \u201cShe was looking to shoot the ball and they had a defender there and shot faked and just got her feet set, got a really good look at it,\u201d he said. \u201cThat was the look we were wanting right there and if it goes in, we\u2019re playing for four more minutes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"499\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/8I7A6676.jpeg?resize=640%2C499&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13696\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/8I7A6676-scaled.jpeg?resize=1024%2C798&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/8I7A6676-scaled.jpeg?resize=300%2C234&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/8I7A6676-scaled.jpeg?resize=768%2C598&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/8I7A6676-scaled.jpeg?resize=1536%2C1196&amp;ssl=1 1536w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/8I7A6676-scaled.jpeg?resize=2048%2C1595&amp;ssl=1 2048w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/8I7A6676-scaled.jpeg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/wzbd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/8I7A6676-scaled.jpeg?w=1920&amp;ssl=1 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Norwell&#8217;s Kennedy Fuelling finished her career at the State Finals as the school&#8217;s all-time leading scorer.
