Brandon Brothers was the only other Tartan in double figures with 13. Bonita, down by ten after three, cut the lead\u00a0to\u00a0six early in\u00a0the fourth. But Bigornia hit another one from the land of plenty and\u00a0then proceeded to bury eight straight free throws down the stretch to hold off the Bearcats.\u00a0Glendora was 12 for 15 from the line in the final period.<\/p>\n<p>Glendora came out smoking early with 23 points\u00a0in the first quarter as Brothers and Bigornia combined for\u00a013 points. Glendora cooled off in the second but still led 33-28 at the half. Kyle\u00a0Bracy hit a couple of big baskets for the Tartans in the\u00a0third quarter as Glendora outscored Bonita 15-10 to go up by double figures.<\/p>\n<p>The Bearcats seemed on the verge of a run in the fourth as Tyler Poepping nailed a three\u00a0and Joe Quintana\u00a0had a pair of buckets and six points in the quarter.

Poepping and Quintana each had\u00a013, Russell Hernandez had 12, including a pair of threes, and\u00a0Kyle Gray added 10.
