Bulldogs Knock Off Carroll 51-42 to Close Out Regular Season

Story of the Day
The 15th ranked Bulldogs closed out the regular season with a 51-42 victory over 11th ranked Carroll College Saturday night. Once again, after being locked in a duel through three quarters the Bulldogs used a strong fourth quarter to pull away with the win.  After struggling offensively in the first half the Bulldogs found their way in the second, shooting 45 percent from the floor. The result of the game had no playoff implications as both teams had already secured their playoff seeding regardless of outcome.
