LINCOLN - Bridgeport will make their 13th appearance at the Nebraska School Activities Association Boys State Basketball Championships in Lincoln.

The Bulldogs (23-2), under first-year Head Coach Sean Sterkel, are the No. 3 seed in the Class C2 bracket and will play No. 6 BRLD (18-4) in the quarterfinals on Wednesday, March 10. Tipoff is set for 6:30 p.m. CST at Lincoln Northeast High School.

News Channel Nebraska will carry all Bridgeport games at the state tournament on 98.7 FM, newschannelnebraska.com and the NCN app.

The Bulldogs secured their second Lincoln trip in three years with a 56-46 overtime victory against Oakland-Craig in the Class C2-3 District Championship on Saturday in Kearney.
