Tucumcari and Clayton are an even 5-5 against one another since February of 2018, but not for long. The Tucumcari Rattlers will be playing at home against the Clayton Yellowjackets at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday.

Tucumcari took a loss when they played away from home on Thursday, but their home fans gave them all the motivation they needed on Saturday. They took down Clayton 71-55.

Clayton has been struggling recently as they've lost six of their last eight contests. That's put a noticeable dent in their 12-13 record this season. Those losses can't be blamed on the team's offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 59.1 points over those games. Tucumcari's victory bumped their record up to 9-16.
