2A WEST REGIONAL CHAMPS!!!!!!!!

Last night's 2A West Regional Championship game was intense! The gym was extremely loud and packed with fans. It was standing room only with people along each baseline wall standing or sitting. It was warm during the day so the gym was so hot by the time the game started, it was like a sauna. Both student crowds stood for most of the game and were really into the game. It was a great atmosphere and a memorable night. In the first quarter, Century was extremely accurate on offense hitting 3 three pointers, which added to their 15-11 lead. In the 2nd quarter it was an even game (17-17) and at halftime Century lead by 4 points. After halftime, the Bears came out aggressive and tough offensively and defensively which allowed them to dominate. In the 3rd they outscored Century 22-17 and 28-15 in the fourth. In addition the Bears were accurate from the foul line making 17 of 22, which most were made in the final 2:00 minutes of the game. With this win it gives the Bears the 2A West Regional Championship for the 3rd year in a row.
