Riverside senior Morgan Heiny hit four 3’s and finished with 15 points to lead Riverside to a 39-29 win over Tri-Center on Tuesday night in Oakland. The Bulldogs got off to a slow start, falling behind by 6 midway through the first quarter, but rallied to an 8 point lead by halftime. The Bulldogs held the lead near the 7-10 point range most of the rest of the way. Bulldogs Coach Mitch Rice talked about what got the team rolling in the second quarter.

Freshman Elly Henderson had a nice game as well with 11 points. She made a couple of big baskets and defensive plays at the beginning of the fourth quarter to keep the Bulldogs in control.

The win pushed the Bulldogs to a 4-6 record on the season and Coach Rice said it was another milestone.
