Bulldogs beat Bears

Mississippi Gulf Coast won its second straight game to open the women's basketball season, outlasting host Baton Rouge 57-54 on the second day of the Lady Bears Classic.

Nautica Bouie (So., Panama City, Fla./Rutherford) led the Bulldogs with 16 points, and Taelar Felton (So., Clinton/Clinton) added 11.

Gulf Coast led by 12 at the end of the third quarter and held on against a furious Baton Rouge rally. The Bears are 0-2.

Gulf Coast plays its next game at home but has to wait until Nov. 10. Meridian will visit for a non-conference game, which will start at 5:30 p.m. Tickets are available at http://mgcccbulldogs.com/tickets, and the game will be streamed at https://mgcccbulldogs.com/watch.
