AUGUSTIN HITS GAME WINNING SHOT AS ROBINSON SECONDARY TOPS OAKTON IN OVERTIME

12/9/25 – With the score tied in overtime, Sophomore London Augustin hit the game winning shot from behind the arc to propel Robinson Secondary School over Oakton High School, 49-46.

What started out as a sloppy game turned into an exciting finish as both teams made big plays in the fourth quarter and in overtime.

Nadeen Yaghi came off the bench in the fourth quarter for Oakton and made a lay up off of a steal, and then hit a big three pointer to get Oakton back in the game. After that, she had a crucial rebound and took a timely charge.

Oakton’s Brooke Chang had 5 points in the fourth quarter and her teammate Sophie Toole scored two field goals in the fourth quarter.

After a slow start, Madison Coutinho came alive in the fourth quarter contributing 6 points, a beautiful assist and a big steal that tied the game.

And freshman Parken Mokaves from Robinson scored 4 points in the fourth quarter, and four points in the overtime including a clutch 3 pointer.

But it was Augustin who was the star tonight. She played well all night and ended up with 22 points.

This was a good early season win for Robinson who had the lead virtually the entire game. But it is clear that Robinson will not have an easy time beating competitive teams this year. Robinson is a small team. Their tallest starter is Augustin who is 5’8’’ and she plays the guard position. The lack of height will be a problem for Robinson this season.

Oakton started the game slow – very slow. They did not score a field goal until 2 minutes into the second quarter. Their trio of top players – Toole, Chang and Jocelynn Kinlaw – missed a lot of shots in the first half, but did much better in the second half. Kinlaw finished with 12 points, Chang had 17 points and Toole had 9.
