8th Grade Boys Basketball Falls to Carmel Middle School

The West Bulldogs went on the road to Carmel Middle School to open the second half of the season. The Cougars set the tone early, dominating the offensive boards and eventually finding the bottom of the net to build a 27–9 lead at halftime. The Dogs had some good offensive opportunities early but were unable to capitalize. In the second half, the Cougars came out in a full-court press, clearly concerned about a potential Bulldogs comeback. The final score was 47–20. Crew Ford led the Dogs in scoring with 9 points, while Brady Wilburn added 4. Roman Easton took a charge, and Aiden Hodges came off the bench to record a nice steal and kick-ahead assist for a layup. The Bulldogs will look to get back in the win column tonight as they take on the Avon South Orioles.
