Ingomar has gone 4-0 against Bruce recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Friday. Having just played yesterday, the Ingomar Falcons will jump right back in to play the Bruce Trojans at 7:00 p.m. Ingomar knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 55 points or more in their past 16 matches -- so hopefully Bruce likes a good challenge.

If Ingomar beats Bruce with 66 points on Friday, it's going to be the squad's new lucky number: they've won their past two games with that exact score. Ingomar took their contest on Thursday with ease, bagging a 66-15 win over Water Valley.

Ingomar better keep an eye on Laken Corbit. She was instrumental in Bruce's win, putting up eight points along with nine boards and seven blocks. Corbit is on a roll when it comes to blocks, as she's now posted two or more in the last ten games she's played. The team also got some help courtesy of A'Toria Knox, who posted 12 points and five rebounds.

Bruce smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with ten offensive boards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least eight offensive rebounds in eight consecutive games.

Ingomar's victory was their tenth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 26-2. They've dominated over that stretch too, winning by an average of 29.7 points. As for Bruce, their record is now 13-10.
