SWEET SIXTEEN: Bell County remains perfect at 16-0 with OT win over Daniel Boone, Tenn.

The beat goes on for the red-hot Bell County Bobcats.

After capturing the Class 2A, Section 7 championship on Friday, Bell County improved to a perfect 16-0 less than 24 hours later with a 61-60 overtime win against Daniel Boone, Tenn. at East Tennessee State University.

“Our guys had a great first half, then we somewhat hit a wall in the third quarter,” Bell County coach Brad Sizemore said. “I think the college length floor, plus the hard game from the night before showed up in the game. We looked tired but still found a way to win the game.

“Our guys made huge plays in the overtime and Blake stepped up and made the game-winning free throw with no time on the clock, these kids just keep finding ways to win and I’m super proud of them.”

Cameron Hall was named Player of the Game, scoring 25 points.
