Batesville Boys 7th Grade Basketball

The 7th Grade Middle school Boys basketball took on the Tigers of Greendale Middle School where they lost by a score of 38-48. Once again, the Bulldogs found themselves in a tight battle with the Tigers scoring right from the tip-off. The Bulldogs came up with some great stops and were able to end the first quarter losing by one. The second quarter started with the Dogs taking the lead and the Tigers hitting a three late in the quarter to bring the score to 20-22. The shots weren’t falling for the dogs in the second half, and the Tigers extended their lead to 10 going into the fourth quarter. The Bulldogs tried to bring the game back with Levi Hunt hitting 2–3-point shots, but time ran out for the dogs.   

Leading the Bulldogs in scoring was Carson Meyer with 15, Levi Hunt with 13, Brody Mauk with 4, Winston Garrett, Eli Denni, and Camden Kaiser with 2 points. The Bulldogs are now 5-5 on the season and will finish up the week with the Reindeer Roundup at Waldron on Saturday starting at 9 am.
