As you move through the playoffs the games just get tougher but in this game Bowie should have had the advantage but with only 7 points in the first quarter and 7 points in the second you would think they were in trouble. But the Dekaney Wildcats didn't fair much better scoring 10 in the first and 4 in the second so going into the half the teams were tied at 14.
The Wildcats did a good job of containing forward Connor Robinson who finished the game with only 15 points. Paul Baxter dropped 14 of his own but the big story in this game was the lack of offense from the rest of the Bulldogs team. We said it earlier in the season, the Bulldogs would need to find a way to get both Mo Isom, and Jacob Varela involved in the offense if they wanted to move through the playoffs. Both Isom and Varela only managed 9 points in the game and that was all of the scoring for the Bulldogs offense. Where were O'Reilly, Jefferson, Clark and the rest of the Bulldogs players in a game like this players have to come ready to contribute and the Bulldogs could have used anything from the rest of the team.
Bowie struggled to contain senior Jalen Hughes who averaged 19 ppg this season but was able to drop 26 in the contest against the Bulldogs. The difference maker in this game might have been the outstanding shooting from the line by the Wildcats who shot 17 of 20 from the charity stripe.
Congratulations to the Bowie Bulldogs and we hope to see them again next season.
