Bellevue College women’s basketball faced another strong team from the NWAC’s East Region this week in a showdown with perennial contender Walla Walla last night as the Warriors topped the Bulldogs 59-47 last night at Courter Family Athletic Pavilion in opening-round play of the Bellevue Crossover Tourney.<\/p>\n
After a quarter of poor shooting for both clubs (Walla Walla 3-for-13 from the field; Bellevue 4-for-13), Walla Walla caught fire in the second quarter shooting 66% including 3-for-5 from three-point range. Unfortunately Bellevue remained cold, making only two buckets in the entire quarter as the Warriors outscored Bellevue 21-8. The 13-point differential proved to be the difference maker in the game for the ‘dogs.<\/p>\n
The second half mirrored the first with neither team finding the bottom of the net much in the third quarter before the Warriors stepped it up a notch in the fourth. The Bulldogs never found a hot hand, shooting 15-for-52 for the night. The cold touch carried over to the free throw line as well as the ‘dogs shot only 58%.<\/p>\n
Freshman Rokki Brown was the lone Bulldog who didn’t have struggles from the field scoring 16 points. She also dished out 3 assists.<\/p>\n
Bellevue is now 3-2 on the year and plays Mount Hood (OR) at 6:00 p.m. tonight. Walla Walla will play South Puget Sound at 4:00 p.m. in a preliminary game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
