Bridgeport boys visited the Dukes gym Friday night and jumped all over their conference foes on their way to a convincing 88-50 win.

The Bearcats came out hot as E.J. Brooks poured in 15 of his 23 points in the first quarter as the Dukes tried to keep it close 23-15.

Unfortunately for Garber the Bearcats had more firepower in their arsenal as Derrick Davis pumped in 24, Darvin Ham Jr. had 13 and Delvin Burton ten.

Rebounding was a huge factor in the loss as the Bearcats out boarded the Dukes 52-18 and many of them were offensive that led to easy put-ins.

The Dukes have time to regroup as they are off until Jan. 04, when they travel to Frankenmuth for another conference game. While the Dukes were able to run their offense and get high quality shots in the paint, the ball didn't seem to drop for them as Bridgeport pulled out to a 45-27 half time lead.

Bridgeport then started the second half by outscoring the Dukes 25-12 as the Bearcats finished off the Dukes for a 88-50 win.

Shane O'Mara led Garber with 13 points with Brett Eichhorn adding 12. The Bearcats were lead by Derrick Davis' 26 points with E.J. Brooks adding 20.

Garber resumes play Jan. 4 at Frankenmuth.
