According to Bulldog Coach Michael Owens, the Bulldogs played one of their best games during this tournament. For once, in a long time, the Bulldogs finally had a full bench.

They were outscored by Monticello in the third quarter by 10 points. The Bulldogs held their own during the fourth quarter and was only outscored by two. They held their loss to 8 points which is a season record. As in games past, turnovers were high, but were matched by their opponents as well.

During the last and final game of the tournament, the stress and weariness of the 3 day tournament seemed to have taken its toll on the Bulldogs. During the first quarter, the Bulldogs were only able to score 2 points to their opponents 24 points. When the second quarter came around, the Bulldogs scored 7, but that was no match for Eminence’s 16 points in the second. For the rest of the game, the Bulldogs just weren’t able to find the basket. They only scored 2 points in the third quarter and two points in the fourth quarter. They attempted 20 two point baskets. They hit 4 of those attempts for 20%.
