“This was the best game we played all season. I am so proud of the fight and effort the team put into this game,” said Bellefonte coach Marcus Toomer. “We got down early, but they fought all the way back to take the lead. Huntingdon was clutch at the free throw line and made them when they had to. I told the team at the end of the game that I was so proud of their effort and they had no reason to hang their heads.”
