Basketball Recap: Glenn Takes a Tough Playoff Loss

Glenn and McAllen squared off in some playoff action on Tuesday, but Glenn had to settle for second. They wound up with the same score they had in their last game (52-42), but sadly the team found themselves on the wrong side of the score this time. They were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Bulldogs apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in March of 2021.

McAllen can attribute much of their success to Dylan Benavidez, who went 8-for-15 on his way to 19 points and three steals. That's the most points Benavidez has posted since back in November of 2024. The team also got some help courtesy of Jalin Gilmore, who had seven points.
