Kendall Arnett

Basketball

Tournament

Bear River's boys varsity team fell in first round action at the 71st annual Kendal Arnett basketball tournament to El Camino which sets the table for two Pioneer Valley League rivals on Friday afternoon at 3:30.

Not only did the Bruins fall so did Colfax. This will be the first meeting between two of the area's top teams. Colfax fell to a tough Del Campo team with a chance to win with a shot that hit the rim and fell off the iron as the buzzer sounded. Colfax played well but the tournament's defending champ won in the end.

Placer on the other hand used great three point shooting as well as pounding the ball into the paint as they dropped San Juan by 10 plus points. The Hillman jumped out to an early 10 point lead but the Spartans chipped away and knotted the score by the half. Placer made 5 of 8 three point shots which gave the Hillman breathing room winning 66-54 as they were the only local team to move to semi-final round.

Touchdown Production was there for all three local first round games today, please check back for a full replay of all the day's action.
