CENTER POINT — The Indians have done it again.
For the second consecutive year, Pinson Valley won a down-to-the-wire game over host Center Point to win the Class 5A, Area 11 championship.
Center Point sank a two-point shot with seconds remaining to force overtime, but Pinson Valley came away with a 57-54 victory.

Pinson Valley will host Ramsay in a sub-regional game Friday at Mike Dutton Gymnasium. Ramsay ousted Pinson Valley in this game last season.
