February 26, 2011
The Escambia County High School Blue Devils’ state title dreams came to an end Friday afternoon with a loss to Andalusia.
The Andalusia Bulldogs defeated Escambia County High School of Atmore, 59-57, in the South Region semifinals at the USA Mitchell Center in Mobile.
The Bulldogs managed to stop a Blue Devil rally in the final period. The Blue Devils were down by just one — 56-55 — with 18 seconds to go in the game. But a foul sets up Andalusia to make two free throws and expand their lead to 58-55. Atmore closed the gap to 58-57 with just 2.3 seconds left on the clock. The Andy Bulldogs hit one of two from the line for the 59-57 final.
ECHS was led by Cedric Pierce with 16 points, while Dalvin Craft added 11.
The Blue Devils finished their season at 23-8.
