Dexter, Missouri - The boys basketball team traveled to Ste. Genevieve in semifinal action in the Class 4, District game against Sikeston on Monday, February 27, 2017.  Dexter High School junior Ben Sindle only needed five 3-pointers against the Sikeston Bulldogs to tie the school record for most treys in a season.

Sindle didn't know coming into the game that he had 76 3-pointers for the 2016-2017 boys basketball season, but coach Josh Dowdy did and he was hoping Ben would break the record Monday night.

Ben not only tied the record, but surpassed it by two recording 7 treys.  He surpassed the previous record of 81 treys held by Shawn Guethle.

"I can't say enough about Ben and the entire team. They are family!" commented an emotional Dowdy following the game on Monday. 

Sindle finished the season with a total of 83 3-pointers for the Dexter Bearcats! 

Ben is the son of Darrell Sindle and Chris and Holly Bowman.
