Big team win for Sandpoint girls basketball

The Bulldogs played Timberlake at home on Thursday night. Aliya Strock led Sandpoint with 20 points and the Bulldogs took the win 48-39 over the Tigers.

“I'm really proud of how the girls played against a very tough Timberlake team,” head coach Will Love said. “Except for a stretch in the second quarter, the girls played some tremendous defense and were able to make some key stops at the end of the game,” Love said.
