Alexandria outlasted Richfield for a 66-64 victory in Thursday's first Class 3A boys' basketball state tournament semifinal played at Target Center.

Junior guard Myles Sansted came off the bench to sink key baskets in the game's final seconds. Fouled on a three-pointer attempt, Sansted made his first two free throws. He missed the third, but junior teammate Erik Hedstrom corralled the offensive rebound. Hedstrom got the ball to senior Colton Roderick, who found Sansted open in the corner.

Sansted buried a three-pointer for a two-point lead with 4.2 seconds remaining.
