The Bulldog basketball team’s games were delayed a bit due to weather last week with Tuesday’s sub-varsity games being cancelled and the varsity’s game versus Gateway being moved to Wednesday. Icy road conditions were to blame for the week’s delayed start.
On Wednesday the Dawgs traveled to Gateway and came up short versus the Gators, 42-36. Gateway only has one loss, to Lampasas in round one of district play, and are currently second in District 24-4A with a 7-1 record.
Burnet started out well on Wednesday taking a 15-11 first quarter lead over the Gators. Holcomb led with five in the opener while JJ Whigham and Jaxon Sparks each hit treys.
