Tonight the Bears played in the MD State 2A Finals at the Comcast Center against Potomac High School. The Bears struggled shooting tonight from the floor. They shot under 30% for the game. Even with the poor shooting percentage the Bears battled all game long and were able to cut a 12 point lead to just to 4 points in the 4th quarter. Potomac's size was too much in the end for the Bears to overcome. The FINAL SCORE for the Championship game: Potomac 64 - Oakdale 51
Even though the Bears lost tonight they had a tremendous season. So many memories that will never be forgotten. Some of the highlights include, traveling together to the Governors Challenge, watching Zach Thomas score his 2,000th point, traveling to games, scoring 100 points in a game, Coach Connolly achieving his 200th win, Oakdale student section, Senior Night, watching Clay Conner score his 1,000th point, MVAL Piedmont Conference Champions, Winning the Regional Championship, pep rally (over 1,000 students wearing black t-shirts to school to support the team), becoming a 2A MD State Finalist, and so many other memories with the Seniors (4th year varsity players).
Seniors you will be sorely missed. It was a pleasure watching you grow and develop into true competitors. Your not only good basketball players your great young men. Thanks again for establishing a great program.
GO BEARS!!!!
