Basketball Recap: Sapulpa Now 7-1 over Last Eight Games

It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but Sapulpa had no problem doing just that on Saturday. They snuck past the Edmond North Huskies with a 40-36 win. The victory was all the more spectacular given the Chieftains' disadvantage in MaxPreps' Oklahoma basketball rankings (they are ranked 80th, while the Huskies are ranked eighth).

Sapulpa has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won seven of their last eight matchups. That's provided a massive bump to their 16-11 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 56.8 points over those games. Edmond North's defeat dropped their record down to 20-7.

As of now, neither Sapulpa nor Edmond North have any future games scheduled.
