Bluffton's historic season ends in Lower State quarters
BLUFFTON, S.C. (WSAV) — The Bluffton boys' basketball team had a historic season come to an end in the Class AAAA Lower State quarterfinals at home against Wilson, 50-44, on Feb. 20.
Bluffton lead, 40-36, after the third quarter. However, in the final frame, Bluffton only scored one field goal and total of four points in the final eight minutes.
'Just overall,' Bluffton head coach Bradley Gabriel said. 'I thought we competed, just had a couple of mental lapses here and there in a big game like that it'll cost you. It did tonight. But proud of our kids, proud of our season. That's what I told the guys. I said, 'One game doesn't define who we are.' But overall, I just think their length and their size kind of caught up to us a little bit down the stretch.
The 23 wins will go down as one of the best in school history. Bluffton won the Bobcat Classic in early January.
