Preview: Simmons Blue Devils vs. Greenwood Bulldogs
The Simmons Blue Devils will head out on the road to face off against the Greenwood Bulldogs at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Simmons will be strutting in after a win while Greenwood will be coming in after a defeat.
Last Thursday, Simmons earned a 50-38 victory over O'Bannon. Given Simmons' advantage in MaxPreps' Mississippi basketball rankings (they are ranked 118th, while O'Bannon is ranked 241st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
It was another big night for Akiah Prince, who dropped a double-double on 33 points and 11 rebounds. The matchup was her fourth in a row with at least ten points.
Meanwhile, Greenwood's recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Friday after their sixth straight loss. They took a hard 39-21 fall against Leflore County.
The losses dropped Simmons to 5-2 and O'Bannon to 2-6.
