Bishop O'Dowd boys basketball made two statements late in June at Section 7.
For one, the Dragons are primed to go for the 2025-26 campaign. And two, they're going to play fast.
In an elite offseason tournament that usually has some lower final scores than the regular season, Bishop O'Dowd scored more than 70 points in three of its four wins en-route to a title in the Dorsey & Whitney LLP bracket.
Presenting your Section 7 @DorseyWhitney Bracket Champions. Congratulations Bishop O’Dowd. 🏆#Section7 | #WhereTalentMeetsOpportunity pic.twitter.com/11WQeiAmyC
