The Bears were away tonight at Urbana High School. The gym was packed and it was a playoff type atmosphere. The gym was so loud at times the coaches could barely communicate with their team. The game started back and fourth and the Hawks took a 1st quarter 10-7 lead. The Bears played tough and determined in the 2nd quarter outscoring the Hawks 21-13. In the 3rd, again the Bears battled and played strong as a team outscoring the Hawks 16-11. In the 4th quarter the Bears at one point had a 12 point lead and the Hawks made some tough defensive plays which turned into baskets. The Hawks cut it to 5 with a minute to play, but the Bears held on and sealed their win by making free throws down the stretch. Note: For the game, the Bears were 34 for 44 from the line and the Hawks were 18 for 28. In the fourth quarter the Bears were 21 for 27 from the free throw line and the Bears were 12 for 18. Thank you to all the fans that came out and supported the Bears this evening. We hope to see you at the next one, which is on Tuesday at Thomas Johnson High School.
GO BEARS!!!
