Peterich, Day 3.

[kiddman32]

First…. Om nom nom! More pesto!!

Analy won the 7th-pace game over Truckee, 61-20.

Right now, the 5th-place game features two schools over 300 miles away, yet just 12 miles apart.

Bakersfield Christian faces Bakersfield North, from now on I’ll refer to the two as Bako and North, like I have been during earlier games.

And I’ll do the Cliff’s notes version while I’m on my pesto high.

6-4 Bako, 3:48 left 1st.

 

[kiddman32]

Bako gets it to a 10-4 lead, good buddy…

North gets it to a tie at 10…. and 12-all at the end of 1.

 

[kiddman32]

Bako finishes the 2nd quarter with a nice run, culminating in Gabriel Gutierrez’ twisting drive for a bucket at the buuzer.
