BAINBRIDGE – The Lady Bobcats will move on to face the Delhi Bulldogs in the MAC conference championship for the fourth straight season after Bainbridge-Guilford’s 47-37 win over the visiting Greene Trojans on Monday night.

All tied up at 13-13 after the first quarter, the game between the Trojans and the Bobcats started the same way when these two teams met earlier this season in Greene.

And again B-G pulled away after a 11-6 run in the second quarter. Only this time the lead was five and still in reach for Greene to make a comeback.

The Trojans did just that, outscoring the Bainbridge-Guilford 14-12, closing the lead down to just 3 points.

But the Bainbridge-Guilford defense shut down Greene in the fourth, allowing just one three-pointer from Sophia Brown and an Emma Smith free-throw.

Down the closing stretch, the Bobcats went 4-for-6 at the line, securing the win and their chance at Delhi in the championship game on Friday night.
