HS BBBall: Blue Ridge Outlasts Cerro Gordo-Bement

Blue Ridge Outscored Cerro Gordo-Bement 14-8 in overtime and knocked down its free throws late to take home a Lincoln Prairie Conference win 54-48 Tuesday night in Cerro Gordo. 

 

The win for Blue Ridge ends a four-game losing streak.

 

Sickness had ripped through the Knights program in the last week, and just two weeks ago, Blue Ridge lost to CGB in the Lincoln Prairie Conference tournament opener at Blue Ridge High School.

 

Tuesday night the Knights knocked down 10-of-14 free throws in the extra session and held the Broncos to just two field goals in overtime.

 

Isaac Price led Blue Ridge with 22 points. Wyatt Pearl added 14 points and Colin Michaels finished with 11 points. 

 

CGB drops to 11-16 overall and 3-6 in the Lincoln Prairie Conference.

 

Blue Ridge improves to 15-10 overall and 5-4 in the Lincoln Prairie. The Knights travel to Broadlands-Heritage Friday night in more Lincoln Prairie action.
