AMERICAN FALLS - It took two overtimes, but the American Falls boys' basketball team picked up a big win against Kimberly 56-53 on Friday.

The Beavers held Kimberly to just two points in the first overtime period to keep the game tied, then pulled away in the second.

"We hit some clutch free throws and pulled away from there," American Falls coach Roger Thomas said. "Kimberly is one of the top teams in the state, so to win this one was obviously big for us."

With the victory, American Falls improved to 2-0 with a game at Soda Springs looming on Wednesday.

Nate Villalobos led the Beavers in scoring with 19 points.
