A Second-Quarter Roadblock

Bergan’s quest to remain perfect in Class C-2 nearly faltered in the second quarter, when Scotus slowed the high-powered Knights to just five points. The low tally highlighted the intensity of Scotus’s defense, putting Bergan’s top-seeded status at risk.

The Turning Point in the Third

Undeterred by their sluggish offensive output, Bergan staged what the original story called a “monster third frame” to pull ahead. Their renewed focus on ball movement and efficient scoring gave them a critical boost. Scotus, unable to contain Bergan’s momentum, fell behind as the quarter progressed.

Preserving an Unbeaten Record

By the end of that decisive third quarter, Bergan had shrugged off the second-quarter setback and continued its remarkable run, remaining the top-ranked team in C-2. Though Scotus tested the Knights’ resolve, Bergan’s impressive comeback ensures that their perfect season stays alive for now.

Staying on Top

With this latest victory, Bergan has shown both dominance and resilience—qualities that define championship-caliber teams. While Scotus held them off balance for a quarter, Bergan’s quick turnaround demonstrates why they remain the team to beat in Class C-2 competition.
