Bear Creek can attribute much of their success to Caleb Branch, who had 22 points, and Max Beiber, who earned 21 points. Another player making a difference was Conner Jensen, who scored 12 points.
Meanwhile, Northwest had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. They put the hurt on Charles Wright with a sharp 55-31 victory on Wednesday.
Bear Creek was able to grind out a solid win over Northwest in their previous matchup back in February, winning 54-47. The rematch might be a little tougher for Bear Creek since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
