The Bowie High School girls’ basketball team wrapped up Burleson Tournament action on Saturday with a slim 58-57 victory over Keller Fossil Ridge.
The Lady Rabbits went 4-1 overall at the tournament, but earned fifth place in this oddly-formatted event.
Still, Bowie head girls’ basketball coach Colby Davis-Pastusek said she was pleased with her team’s effort – especially coming out on top by one point in a pair of games.
“In both situations, we were up one point, and we had to get a defensive stop,” Davis-Pastusek said.
Courtney Brady was named to the all-tournament team and she tallied 25 points in the victory over Fossil Ridge.
Brady played great despite having a fever, Davis-Pastusek reported.
“She stepped up and had a big weekend for us,” Davis-Pastusek said. “She carried the bulk of our offense, and shot the ball well. She did well playing through illness.”
The Lady Rabbits prevailed over Keller Fossil Ridge by outscoring them 20-14 in the final quarter.
Bowie stands at 9-4, and the team is off until Friday’s home game against Decatur. Read more, and see the complete box score, in the mid-week Bowie News.
