New Bedford Guide Your Guide to New Bedford and South Coast, MA
The Bishop Stang Spartans (21-3) traveled to the TD Garden in Boston, MA to take on the Bedford Buccaneers (17-7) in the MIAA Division 3 State-Semi Finals.
The first half was close, and it would have had you believed the game would be a nail biter. Stang outscored Bedford by 1 point in the first quarter, and again in the second quarter, ending the half with a 28-26 lead.
In the second half, the Spartans came out of the locker room with the “havoc” chant in the background. Bishop Stang wasted no time and took complete control of the game. Their defense smoldered Bedford keeping them to 6 points in the third and 11 in the fourth.
Bishop Stang wins over Bedford 63-43, and the team moves on to the State Finals this Saturday in Springfield.
Bishop Stang – 19,9,16,19 = 63
