BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (WBKO) - It feels like it’s been forever, but the 4th Region Semifinal games took place Monday night over at Diddle Arena as two teams advanced to Tuesday night’s championship game.

In the first matchup, Bowling Green and Barren County went at it for the second time this season.

Bowling Green won the first matchup and that result stayed the same in this one. Barren County made it interesting late, but it was too little too late as the Purples beat the Trojans 51-46.

However, the history did not help them this time as the Dragons clinched their way into the championship once again, winning 81-45.

Bowling Green and Warren Central will play in the championship game Tuesday night at 6 p.m. inside Diddle Arena.
