Heritage is 8-2 against Denbigh since January of 2019 and they'll have a chance to extend that success on Tuesday. The Heritage Hurricanes just played last yesterday, but they'll still welcome the Denbigh Patriots at 7:00 p.m. Heritage knows how to get points on the board -- the squad has finished with 55 points or more in their past five games -- so hopefully Denbigh likes a good challenge.

On Monday, in a tight matchup that could have gone either way, Heritage made off with a 65-64 win over Petersburg.

Meanwhile, Denbigh waltzed into their contest on Thursday with three straight wins... but they left with four. They enjoyed a cozy 59-44 victory over the Phantoms. Given the Patriots' advantage in MaxPreps' Virginia basketball rankings (they are ranked 84th, while the Phantoms are ranked 221st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Denbigh pushed their record up to 8-4 with the win, which was their third straight on the road. The wins came thanks to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 61.3 points per game. As for Heritage, they are on a roll lately: they've won four of their last five games, which provided a massive bump to their 7-5 record this season.
