Round 2 of the Roughrider tournament was tonight at BCHS. Game 1 of the night was Bowman County JV team vs Hettinger/Scranton. Our boys fought hard all game and showed many great things vs the nighthawks. Experience and a great low post presence proved to be too much for our young squad. The nighthawks win by a final score of: 63-53 Be proud boys. You fought hard this tournament. In Varsity action, our bulldogs played the late game in the semi finals vs Beach. The buccaneers came ready to play and caused our team some issues on both sides of the ball. A back and forth battle ensued. Beach in control much of the 2nd half. A late rally by the bulldogs forced the game into OT. In overtime, the bulldogs came out firing from the outside building a lead that Beach just could not overcome. Final score in favor of the dawgs 86-81 Up next for the bulldogs is a championship match vs the Titans from dickinson Trinity. That game will again be the late game on Saturday. Great job boys. It was an entertaining night of basketball.
