A wild win for the conference opener (VIDEO ADDED)*
That was one crazy game.
Trailing by as much as 32-13 in the opening half, the B-B-E Jaguars girls' basketball team fought and fought to close the gap to a more manageable deficit of 34-25 at halftime.
In the second half, the Jaguars traded baskets for most of the first six minutes of play. They began cutting into the double-digit deficit with 11:40 to go, when Abby Berge scored on a fastbreak and drained an and-one opportunity at the line: Holdingford 43, B-B-E 36.
A steal and layup by Tiyana Schwinghammer with 6 minutes left in the game tied it at 48-48. B-B-E's defense took over, and the Huskers were ultimately held to just four points in the game's final 6 minutes and 54 seconds.
Final score: B-B-E 62, Holdingford 52.
**Here's video from before and during the start of the game:
