Box Score Easton, Pa - The Bethlehem Christian Varsity Girls basketball season came to a close on Saturday. The Panthers fought hard against the Hilltoppers of Nativity BVM in the District 11 consolation game and district final. The Panthers fell by a score of 41-38.
The Panthers got off to a hot start.

Giana Kasper added a layup and a three of her own. The Panthers led 23-15 at the halftime break.

The Panthers have nothing to hang their head about. The 2nd year PIAA program made huge leaps this year under head Coach Greg Duff. The Panthers end the year with a regular season record of 11-9. BCS finished 2nd in District XI 1A which earned them silver medals.
Congratulations to the Girls on a fantastic season.
