BAINBRIDGE – The Bobcats varsity boys basketball team has now slid to an 1-2 record after playing three games in the past week span.

BG opened their 2016-2017 season playing South Kortright on the road on Nov. 29, to which they were handed a tough road loss at 71-36. The loss came at the hands of South Kortright's leading scorer number 12, who managed a monster 26 points against the Bobcats.

On Dec. 1, BG would find their way into the win column with a championing win over Hunter-Tannersville Central at 49-43 in the Mokay Tournament in Delhi. With a halftime score of 20-19, the close matchup would come down to the wire. However, the Bobcats emerged from the half to post two solid periods of scoring – 14 and 15 points receptively – earning them the win. Leading BG in scoring for the day was Trevor Halaquist and Sean Jones who each grabbed 13 points in the win.

Despite the win, to even their record at 1-1, BG would slide back into the losing column when they faced Delhi the very next day on Dec. 2, as they lost in a blowout at 70-38 in the tournament finals.
