Vikings conclude season with a home victory over Yaks

MOSES LAKE — The Big Bend Community College Vikings (13-16) ended their season Wednesday night, but not before going out strong with an 88-73 victory over the Yakima Valley Yaks. With the Vikings coming just one game short of making the playoffs prior to this matchup, the goal was to still give all they had. “It’s bittersweet, you know we closed out the season four and five, we were one quick possession out of the playoffs,” said Vikings sophomore Miguel Taylor. “But we finished the season strong. We all came together and were able to make big improvements, so I’m happy.” The Vikings came out strong in the first half of the competition, taking an early lead over Yakima Valley. By halftime, BBCC was up by eight.
