TEMPERANCE — The Bobcats had a huge fourth quarter as they cut into what was a 45-23 lead but the Mules held on for the non-league win.

Evan Parker continued his high-scoring early season with 22 points. Josh Hill added six points.

“I give Whiteford a ton of credit,” Bedford coach Jordan Bollin said. “They played incredibly hard till the very end. We did a nice job defensively keeping them in front and slowing them down in transition.”
