The Bulldogs raced out in front outscoring Centralia 25-17 in the third quarter, but then lost momentum in the final quarter, allowing the Centralia comeback.&#8221;We have the capability and talent, but we&#8217;ve had a tough time stringing together several quarters in a game of basketball we&#8217;re capable of playing,&#8221; said Head Coach Mel Stubblefield following the game.<\/p>\n<p>After a tie score after the first quarter, the remainder of the game was a see-saw battle by quarter as Centralia went up at halftime before Bellevue&#8217;s big third quarter to take control of the game.

The Bulldogs shot only 35% from the field, but stayed in the game by sinking 15-of-17 at the free throw line.<\/p>\n<p>Bellevue is now 8-5 and travel to Edmonds for the North Region league opener on January 11 for a 5:00 p.m. tip-off.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Brenda Akoto led BC but the squad fell short 69-66 at Centralia. photo by Rich Dworkis.
