Some high-performance offense is likely on the agenda as the two teams are some of the highest scoring teams in the league. Westover hasn't had any problem running up the score this season, having averaged 55.8 points per game. However, it's not like Godby struggles in that department as they've been averaging 63.4 points. With both teams so easily able to put up points, the only question left is who can run the score up higher.
Westover came out on top in a nail-biter against Godby in their previous matchup back in November of 2024, sneaking past 56-54. Will Westover repeat their success, or does Godby have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
