The Jennings Bulldogs picked up a big win over the Midland Rebels Thursday night at Gaudet Gymnasium by a final count of 89-76 in front of a full house.

The Dogs trailed by as many as seven in the first half, but found a way to answer back every time Midland grabbed a lead. Jeremy Legros had a monster outing for the Bulldogs by pouring in 34 points, most coming by attacking the rim off of the dribble.

Sams went for 17, while Sterling Guillory and Azire Simon also put up 10 in the win.
