VALLEY SPORTS ROUNDUP : Seikaly’s Shot Lifts Notre Dame, 47-45

Notre Dame High senior Omar Seikaly stands all of 5-foot-9, but wears a size-15 shoe. His cousin, Rony Seikaly, formerly starred at Syracuse and is now the center for the NBA’s Miami Heat.

Monday night, Omar filled the family shoes quite nicely.

Seikaly made a 15-foot jump shot with six seconds remaining to hand Notre Dame a 47-45 victory over Loyola in a non-league game at Loyola.

Loyola had tied the score, 45-45, with 32 seconds remaining, setting the stage for Seikaly, who finished with six points.

Junior forward Monte Marcaccini finished with a game-high 25 points and added nine rebounds for Notre Dame (4-4).
