The Ensworth Tigers will challenge the Webb Spartans at 5:00 p.m. on Friday. Ensworth knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 55 points or more in their past six contests -- so hopefully Webb likes a good challenge.

Ensworth is coming in fresh off a high-stakes matchup with another one of Tennessee's top teams: Father Ryan, who was ranked 14th at the time (Ensworth was ranked 15th).

Ensworth is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six games. That's provided a nice bump to their 20-10 record this season.

Webb pushed their record up to 32-2 with the victory, which was their 12th straight at home.

Ensworth came up short against Webb in their previous matchup back in December of 2023, falling 57-47. Will Ensworth have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
