With Hampshire and Dundee-Crown both in the double bonus about halfway through the fourth quarter on Tuesday, Whip-Purs girls basketball coach Eric Samuelson made it known exactly where he wanted the ball to go.“Ashley Herzing came up huge,” Samuelson said. “I think I called three timeouts to tell them to try and get her the ball.”The Whips sophomore guard was almost perfect at the free-throw line, hitting 9-of-10 free throws in the fourth quarter and 11-of-12 overall. Herzing’s clutch shooting helped the Whip-Purs past the Chargers, 52-44, in their Fox Valley Conference game.
