The Lady Bears hung tough, but trailed 13-6 after the first quarter. It was more of the same in the second quarter.
Bellevue’s Callie Martin got to the free throw line six times during this period and made most of those trips worth it.
Gold-Burg was able to make some 3-pointers and competed tough to keep the game relatively close. Bellevue led 26-18 heading into halftime.
Despite the Lady Eagles lack of depth, they did a good job of looking for transition opportunities against a Lady Bears team trying to crash the offensive glass.
Gold-Burg had troubles scoring in the second half and Bellevue made them pay by pushing the ball on outlet passes to players leaking out early.
Bellevue would win 53-31.
