SANDPOINT — It was a hard-fought game, but the Bulldogs’ fourth quarter rally proved to be too much for the Trojans. Between the third and fourth, Sandpoint, led by multiple three-pointers from seniors Karlie Banks and Aliya Strock, went on a 15-0 run to seal the deal at Les Rogers Court on Friday.

“We were calling a lot of sets in the first half, but just let them play basketball through some formations in the second.” Love said.
