HARLAN \u2014 Bell County turned in another dominant district performance Friday night, rolling past Harlan 92\u201356 to improve to 14\u20133 on the season and a perfect 3\u20130 in 52nd District play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bobcats controlled the game from start to finish in a tough road environment, using balanced scoring and strong play on both ends of the floor to pull away from the Green Dragons. Harlan fell to 7\u201311 overall and 1\u20132 in district competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blake Burnett led Bell County with a game-high 29 points, while Braxton Ferguson followed with 25. Ethan Buell added 18 points as the Bobcats showcased their offensive depth in the lopsided win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Harlan was led by Izack Saylor with 20 points. Kobe Noe finished with 13 points, and Dylan Cox chipped in 11 in the loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bell County coach Brad Sizemore said he was proud of the way his team handled the road atmosphere and took care of business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur kids came out played really good in a tough environment on the road,\u201d he said. \u201cI told them before the game every time you come to Harlan you have to be ready to go because there kids play hard and won\u2019t quiet. We had several guys that stepped up on both sides of the ball and it was good to get another district win.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
