The Huntington Red Devils are taking a road trip to challenge the Center Roughriders at 6:15 p.m. on Tuesday. Huntington is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 51.7 points per game this season.

Huntington is probably headed into the contest with a chip on their shoulder considering Central Heights just ended the team's six-game winning streak on Friday. They lost 58-34 to the Blue Devils. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest loss the Red Devils have suffered since December 4, 2025.

Huntington's defeat came about despite a quality game from Raeley Sebek, who posted 17 points in addition to six boards and six steals. That was a full 50% of the Red Devils' points, marking the third time in a row Sebek has had more than a third of the team's points.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Center). They blew past Joaquin 65-42 on Tuesday. The Roughriders not only won on Tuesday, but they posted their biggest win since December 14, 2024 (when they won 59-36).

Huntington's loss dropped their record down to 18-7. As for Center, their victory bumped their record up to 8-10.

Huntington couldn't quite get it done against Center in their previous matchup back in December of 2025 as they fell 48-37. Can the Red Devils avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
