The Tigers clinched a huge 6A-West win at the free-throw line down the stretch.

Bentonville (15-8, 6-5 6A-West) outscored the Bulldogs 23-20 in the final quarter as three players scored in double-figures.

Fayetteville's C.J. Williams drained a 3-pointer with 1:00 left to make it a one-point game at 55-54, but the Tigers got three free throws from Sawyer Price, and the Bulldogs (17-8, 8-3) misfired on several perimeter shots late.

Price scored 13 points to lead a balanced Bentonville attack. Brayden Freeman finished with 12 and Hayden Shanks scored 11.

Williams was the only Fayetteville player in double-figures with 10. Tamaury Releford scored 9 points -- just two in the second half -- after scoring 24 second-half points in the team's first meeting in January.
