Preview: Delhi Bears vs. Ringgold Redskins
The Delhi Bears will head out on the road to challenge the Ringgold Redskins at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Each of these teams will be fighting to keep a win streak alive as Delhi comes in on 14 and Ringgold on five.
It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Delhi had no problem doing just that on Tuesday. They snuck past the Vikings with a 65-60 win. Having run the score up that high, both teams might be doing some extra defensive drills very soon.
Meanwhile, even though Block scored an imposing 60 points on Tuesday, Ringgold still came out on top. Ringgold managed a 66-60 win over Block. Given Ringgold's advantage in MaxPreps' Louisiana basketball rankings (they are ranked 81st, while Block is ranked 213th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Jbari Adams continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, dropping a double-double on 25 points and 15 rebounds. He hasn't dropped below two steals for 12 straight games. The team also got some help courtesy of Jordyn Wilson, who scored 19 points.

Delhi beat Ringgold 65-55 when the teams last played back in February of 2023. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Ringgold's Da'Travion Henson, who scored 23 points along with two steals.
