MARTINEZ - Bulloch Academy used a lightning-quick fast break and dominated the defensive boards to pummel Pinewood Christian Academy 65-49 in the GISA Region 4-AAA girls’ championship game here Friday. The Lady Gators (29-1) captured their third consecutive region title and will advance to the first round of the state tournament next Wednesday at Tattnall Square Academy in Macon. Bulloch will take on the fourth-seeded squad from Region 3-AAA at 8:30 p.m. “We came in believing that we could beat Pinewood and get a three-peat,” said a joyous Chelsea Oglesby, BA’s senior center who scored a career-high 29 points and pulled down 15 rebounds.
