The Newport - Bellevue Knights's game last Monday was a tough loss, but they didn't let that memory haunt them on Wednesday. They walked away with a 58-50 victory over Mount Si. That result was just more of the same for these two, as Newport - Bellevue also won the last time the pair played back in December of 2023.
