The BGMR Gators Boy’s Basketball team traveled to Warren on Thursday night to take on the Warren-Alvarado-Oslo Ponies. Despite a valiant effort by the Gator boys the Ponies were able to secure the home court win with a 54-47 victory.
Like past games between these two teams, it was a back and forth affair as the teams went into halftime tied at 28. The second half was much the same as both teams would trade baskets. The Gators however were hit with the injury bug as two starters went out with what appears to be minor injuries. The Ponies were able to take advantage of the Gator youth as a tie game with just over 2 minutes ended with the Ponies closing out the game on an 8 to 1 run to take home the seven point margin of victory.
BGMR managed to land only one individual in double figures. Tanner Creviston led the Gators with 10 points. After sitting out the past couple games with an injury Nick Rodriguez made his return to the lineup and scored 9 points. Aaron Dostal also contributed 8 points.
The Gators will continue their road play when they travel to Warroad on Saturday. The game Saturday was rescheduled from earlier in the year. The Gators will again be looking for revenge as the Warriors beat the Gators just over a week ago. The Gator boys continue to show great effort despite suffering some tough losses. This should bode well for the Gators as tournament time is just around the corner.
