Ensminger carries family legacy into March Madness
MBB: Son of former Valparaiso star shines in tough loss to Kentucky
ST. LOUIS - Jake Ensminger sat slumped in the corner of Santa Clara’s locker room on Friday afternoon.
The Broncos had just come up on the wrong end of a signature March moment as Kentucky’s Otega Oweh delivered an improbable buzzer-beating 3-pointer to send Friday’s opening game at the Enterprise Center to overtime. The Wildcats survived 89-84 in the extra session, leaving Ensminger to reflect on how close Santa Clara came to an upset.
