The Squaws though scored the first six points of the fourth quarter. It was a lead they pushed to nine at times but never relented as BC lost 52-46. Elvine had 18 points. BC was 9 of 21 from the foul line.
Trailing by as many as seven in the first half, Tyrek Mack’s half-court heave cut the deficit to 23-21 at halftime BC though could never tie the game in the third and went down by eight going to the fourth.
The Royals were held to eight points in the fourth quarter in losing 53-40. Nykez Farrow had 19. Bleckley will make its lone appearance at the Houston County Bear Brawl tomorrow night against the host Bears and Lady Bears. Tip time is 7 pn, © Copyright 2015 by BleckleyProgress.com |
