———-

The Toombs County Bulldogs Men’s Basketball team roared through the Region 3 Class AA tournament, securing the championship and earning the #1 seed for the state tournament! Their stifling defense and offensive proved to be the difference makers.
​
Region Player of the Year Dominic Eason shone bright, averaging a commanding 28.5 points per game across the tournament. His dominant performance included a 30-point outburst against Brantley County and a 27-point effort in the championship game against Vidalia. Jesus Quintero, another first-team All-Region selection, provided valuable support with 18.5 points and impressive defensive steals.
​
Sophomore Parker Stanley emerged as a defensive force, grabbing 12 rebounds against Brantley County and showcasing his defensive prowess throughout the tournament. The Bulldogs’ overall defensive effort was commendable, holding Vidalia to a mere 10 points in the second half of the championship game.
​
This victory over Vidalia marked the third time the Bulldogs had defeated their rivals this season, showcasing their dominance within the region. With this win, they secured the #1 seed and the privilege of playing their first round of the state tournament at home.
​
Next up, the Bulldogs face the challenge of Central HS (Macon), a team boasting athletic players and a formidable 6’10” center. Toombs’ defense will need to be sharp from the tip-off to overcome this new opponent.
​
With the state tournament kicking off, the stakes are high. The Bulldogs are determined to continue their winning streak with their eyes on a state championship run.

GO DAWGS! BE A DOG!
