Rayville posted their closest win since February 5, 2024 on Tuesday. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 75-72 victory over the Neville Tigers. The win was all the more spectacular given the Hornets' disadvantage in MaxPreps' Louisiana basketball rankings (they are ranked 162nd, while the Tigers are ranked 36th).

Rayville is on a roll lately: they've won nine of their last 11 matches, which provided a nice bump to their 12-13 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 72.8 points over those games. As for Neville, their loss dropped their record down to 19-10.

Rayville does not have any more games scheduled as of now. As for Neville, a feisty cat fight will be fought as the Tigers face off against the Panthers at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Lincoln Prep will roll in looking for their sixth straight victory, something Neville surely won't give up without a fight.
