A pair of free throws from Dallas County center William Lee pushed the lead to double digits at 45-34 with 4:05 left in the quarter, and Dallas County maintained control and took a 60-45 lead into the fourth.

Beauregard’s Kris Mynard hit a pair of free throws and a 3-pointer to open the fourth quarter and cut Dallas County’s lead to ten points at 60-50 with 7:24 left in the game.

However, Leshore hit a basket and the free throw after being fouled, sparking Dallas County, which pulled away and outscored Beauregard 27-24 in the quarter and never let them get closer than 12 points the rest of the way.

Missed free throws hurt Beauregard on the night, as they missed 11 from the charity stripe.
