The BGMR Gator Boys Basketball Team spent the first 30 minutes of a 36 minute game sleep walking and because of this, a talented Kittson Central Bearcat team jumped on the Gators and cruised to a 50-39 win.
BGMR found themselves down by 20 at the 6:00 minute mark of the second half. At that time the Gators boys decided to play with a passion that eluded them for the first 30 minutes. BGMR cut the lead to 9 but time ran out on the Gators and thus gave the Bearcats the road win.
BGMR was lead in scoring by Jacquan Rhen. Rhen needed 24 shots to net 13 points. Jacob Anderson also managed to land in double figures for the Gators as he pumped in 11. Nathan Hietala continued his sold play with 9 points.
Defensively the Gators did a nice job limiting a solid Bearcat team to 50 points. Zach Rynning, who torched the Gators for 39 points in last years playoff game dumped in 15. Derek Coffield who has also hurt the Gators in the past netted 14.
BGMR will complete its pre-holiday schedule on Tuesday when they go back out on the road traveling to Plummer to take on the Red Lake County Rebels. BGMR is hoping to go into the holiday break with a victory. It will not be an easy task as the Rebels have been playing better basketball as of late.
The BGMR Boys Players would like to take this time to thank all parents who worked the successful supper before the Kittson Central game. A special thank you to Becky Dostal and Connie Creviston for heading up the work crew.
