Fans and players from both teams were on their feet in the final minutes as Wagner neared the single-game record.

Wagner was unaware.

“Everyone kept telling me to shoot, and I didn’t know why,” she said. “I didn’t know I was that close.”

With a minute remaining, a Wagner free throw tied the single-game mark of 47 points by Taylor Hill of Minneapolis South and Brittany Chambers of Jordan.

On a fast break with 25 seconds left, Wagner passed the ball.

Her final chance came with 7.9 seconds left, and as she cashed in at the free-throw line the NRHEG fans went wild.

“This is a terrific milestone,” said Janckowski. “I don’t know who’s more excited, the people at the scorer’s table or the fans.”

Wagner humbly soaked it up as  NRHEG fans chanted “Carlie! Carlie! Carlie!”

“I was thinking, ‘Oh my gosh, they’re saying my name,’” said Wagner. “I’ll never forget that.”

Panther fans will never forget a season that saw them go 32-1 and shatter several school records.

The only blemish on their record was a 56-39 semifinal loss to Sauk Centre, which went on to fall 46-40 to No. 1 ranked Providence Academy in the championship game.

The Panthers were ranked No. 2 in the final Associated Press Class AA state poll.
