The third place game placed the Beeville Orange team against the Floresville Tigers.
It was a game that really tested the mettle of the Beeville boys. The short numbers were a detriment as the team finished with just four players on the floor for most of the fourth quarter due to foul trouble.
The Trojans were hot from the opening tip and blazed their way to a 15-5 lead after just one period. The Tigers got things going in the second period but the Trojans outscored Floresville 15-13 to take a 30-18 lead into the half.
The Beeville Orange would need all the lead they could get as the fouls started to mount in the second half. The Tigers kept the pressure on and worked hard on defense to force the Trojans into turnovers. Floresville captured the third period 11-7 and cut the lead down to eight points, 37-29.
Beeville coach Scott Olivo lost two players to fouls and resorted to a diamond defense to try and hold off the surging Tigers. Floresville cut the lead to just one point on three different occasions late in the fourth but DelBosque always seemed to have an answer for the Tigers. A basket or free throws by DelBosque kept the Trojans in the lead down the stretch. It was a 43-42 game with just a few seconds left to play. DelBosque calmly hit both ends of a one-and-one situation. A Tiger turnover gave the ball back to the Trojans. A quick Floresville foul put the Trojans back at the charity stripe with a chance to extend their lead and secure the win, but with 1.06 seconds left the Beeville shooter missed the front end of the one-and-one situation. The Tigers fired up one last shot from beyond mid-court that fell short and the Trojans earned the 45-42 victory for third place.
Beeville was led in scoring by DelBosque with 15 points. Shears and Preston Tabb followed with eight apiece. Peyton Tabb hit for six points as did Holder. Camacho finished with two to complete the scoring.
