Caudill, Gildon pace Bullpups

Even without arguably its best defender and rebounder, the Gonzaga Prep girls basketball team didn’t miss a beat Friday.

Playing without senior Madison Wright, who has been lost for the season because of a knee injury, the Bullpups ran away from the visiting University Titans 78-46 in Greater Spokane League action.

Ferris 56, North Central 45: It took the Saxons (6-3, 4-3) more than a half to shake the pesky Indians (0-9, 0-7) at Ferris.
