FPCA 55, Bethesda 46

The Bethesda Blazers were desperate to avenge two state title losses to the First Presbyterian Christian Academy Highlanders and kept the score close in the later part of the game.

But the Highlanders had something to prove and edged out a 55-46 win Saturday afternoon giving some of the varsity boys their third state ring in a row.

It's Highlander coach David Jones' first state ring after taking over as the school's Athletic Director and boys' basketball coach.

These two teams exchanged region titles in the past, but the Blazers have now been denied their third state crown at the hands of the FPCA boys who, this season, were 3-1 against their strongest GISA 2-A opponent.

The game ended after the Courier's Sunday press run, but you can read the entire story and catch the team's trophy moment in Wednesday's Coastal Courier.
