This Bridgeport Bulls Sports Minute is brought to you by Henson’s Lumber
Bridgeport’s Sissies are set to open the Class 4A Division II playoffs on Monday as the No. 1 seed from District 7-4A in the Region I bracket.
Bridgeport will face Dunbar in the bi-district round with a 6 p.m. tip at Azle High School. The Sissies wrapped up the regular season 23-13 overall and 10-4 in district play.
Bridgeport closed the regular season with a 66-63 overtime loss to Krum last Tuesday. While the game had no postseason implications for the Sissies, it was a must-win for Krum to secure a playoff berth.
Bridgeport enters the postseason as a heavy favorite against Dunbar, which finished 15-16. With a win, the Sissies would advance to the area round to face either Lubbock Liberty or Glen Rose later this week.
On the boys side, the Bulls are still fighting for a playoff spot heading into their regular-season finale Tuesday at home against Decatur. Bridgeport must beat the Eagles and get help elsewhere to stay alive.
The Bulls are chasing Lake Worth for the final District 7-4A playoff berth. Bridgeport needs a Lake Worth loss to Eagle Mountain to force a playoff play-in. If Lake Worth wins, Bridgeport’s season comes to an end.
Bridgeport is 16-17 overall and 6-7 in district play. Lake Worth sits at 7-6 in league action. Last week, the Bulls lost to Krum but earned a win over Castleberry.
