ANCHORAGE, Alaska--Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

Juneau's Thunder Mountain High School literally flew in under the radar for the 2013 Alaska Airlines Classic.

Led by Matt Seymour's 27 points, the Falcons of Thunder Mountain advanced past Louisiana's Northwood High School in overtime, 57-56.

Thunder Mountain shot 53% from the field in the contest.

Northwood's Martavious Washington tallied 24 points including 4 for 8 from beyond the arc.
