Bellevue threw in 52 points in the first half thanks in part to the hot hand of Sawyer Cottrell. The sophomore shooting sensation drained six three-pointers and was eight-for-14 from the field; good for 22 points at intermission as the &#8216;dogs built up a comfortable 52-31 lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The hot hand came early as Cottrell made his first three shots as Bellevue went up 11-6. After the T-Birds battled back to a three point deficit, the Bulldogs would come up with shots keeping Highline at a distance. Cottrell ended the half in similar fashion as he started, sinking three in a row including two three-balls in a two minute span to push Bellevue to the half century mark before halftime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The second half was a continuing nightmare for Highline as the BC lead grew from 20 to 30 to near 40 when a layup by Isaiah White put the Bulldogs up 84-46 with 6:55 to go. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After a rocky start to the season, the Bulldogs have appeared to have found their rhythm in the early pre-season as they ride a four-game winning streak into the Bulldog Classic this weekend. The &#8216;dogs will host Walla Walla and Tacoma in a round-robin affair at Courter Family Athletic Pavilion. Tipoff for the Fri. Dec. 5 opener vs. Walla Walla is set for 7 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BC Athletics.
