Owensboro Catholic 53 Bethlehem 47 (KHSAA Girls Sweet Sixteen Round 1)

Final. They will take on Scott Co. on Friday at 12:00.

Congrats.

Tough shooting for the Bethlehem girls — they had similar struggles in their two games at the All A Classic on the open end at McBrayer. If the Banshees could have hit just one or two more shots in the 4thQ they might have pulled out the win. Their defense and rebounding did the job, as they won the turnover battle and the battle on the glass, generating 22 more shot attempts.

Regardless, a great season for Bethlehem, the best by far in school history. They should be well-positioned to defend their title in the 5th, but obviously Bardstown and E'town will provide stout challenges.
