A week after that came a 54-46 win — the 200th for head coach Brandon Hoffman — over No . 6 Guerin Catholic at Seymour to earn a return trip to Bankers Life .
In the state championship game , the Dragons once again found themselves in a dogfight . Creek , which won its final six games by an average of 4.8 points , saw its double-digit lead whittled to one . But just as they did all postseason , the Dragons found a way to win .
After Leo ’ s Demetrious Allen made a layup with four seconds left , and with the Lions out of timeouts , all Creek had to do was watch the game clock expire . When it did , and the buzzer sounded , the Dragons began celebrating their historic achievement .
“ To come back and win again , that ’ s an amazing feeling . Words can ’ t describe it ,” senior guard Isaac Hinton said .
“ It ’ s just been an incredible run ,” Kaufman-Renn added .
One that will never be forgotten in Sellersburg .

“ To come back and win again , that ’ s an amazing feeling . Words can ’ t describe it .”
