     The Lee High School boys basketball team earned their fourth Liberty District Tournament title in six years with a 68-66 overtime victory over host Fairfax Rebels on Friday night.
     Both teams thrilled the rowdy, standing room-only crowd of 1,700, and Lee's Roger Jackson sent the game into overtime with a jump-shot as the buzzer sounded.
     Val Brown, who led the Lancers to victory in the extra frame and finished with 19 points, was named the tournament's Most Valuable Player.

     Down six points to the host Fairfax Rebels with 80 seconds remaining in Friday's Liberty game, the Lee Lancers could have given up on their goal of a district title.
