Bulldogs Take A Winter Break Eliza McLaughlin - Staff Reporter The Broadwater Bulldogs had a light week of play last week after their second showdown for the week, against the Park High Rangers, was rescheduled for Jan. 31 due to the sudden winter weather.
This game took place after MT 43 News’ press deadline.
However, the Bulldogs' match against the Manhattan Tigers on Jan. 26, went on without a hitch.
Manhattan got an early lead by outscoring the Bulldogs 16 to 13 in the first quarter. Townsend made up for it in the second quarter by adding 19 points to their score.
The teams broke for halftime with Broadwater in the lead by only two, 32-30.
In the third, the Bulldogs continued to just outscore the Tigers 12-11.
Only three points ahead, every shot in the fourth quarter mattered more than the last. In the end, the Bulldogs came out on top 55-50 and secured their fourth district win for the season.
Ryan Racht scored 26 points for the Bulldogs, followed by Jesus Garcia with 18.
Currently, the Broadwater Bulldogs are ranked fourth in the district, with Three Forks, Manhattan and Jefferson claiming the top three spots.
With three district match-ups before the regular season ends, there are still plenty of opportunities for the Bulldogs to climb the rankings and secure a higher seed for the District Tournament on Feb. 16-18 in Belgrade.
The Bulldogs will host Lone Peak and Three Forks on Friday, Feb. 3 and Saturday, Feb. 4, respectively. Games against Lone Peak start at 3 p.m. and the fight against Three Forks will kick off at 1 p.m.
The Bulldogs previously beat the Three Forks Wolves, 65-58.
