After a one-year hiatus, Bridgeport will be back in the Class AA state tournament thanks to capturing a 58-43 win against Nicholas County Thursday evening at BHS.
 
Jake Bowen and Brayden Lesher both had big nights in the win. The effort offset a 20-point showing by NCHS's Luke LeRose.

 

The win moves the Indians to 17-7 on the year. The Grizzlies end their season at 15-10. It also moves Bridgeport into the opening round of the state tourney where Tribe has earned a No. 7 seed and will face No. 2 seed Chapmanville who is 24-1 on the year.
