Nitro has gone a perfect 10-0 against Lincoln County recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Tuesday. The Wildcats will be home for the holidays to greet the Panthers at 7:00 p.m. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.

On Saturday, Nitro came up short against Hurricane and fell 82-71.

Despite their defeat, Nitro saw several players rise to the challenge and make noteworthy plays. Collin Crouch, who almost dropped a double-double with 29 points and nine rebounds, was perhaps the best of all. The team also got some help courtesy of Ty Stephens, who went 7-for-15 to rack up 23 points.

Meanwhile, Lincoln County unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-court advantage in their season opener. They were beaten by Ripley 98-28 on Wednesday. Sadly, the loss continues a streak the team started last season, making it seven in a row.

Everything came up roses for Nitro against Lincoln County in their previous matchup back in February, as the squad secured an 84-39 victory. In that game, the Wildcats amassed a halftime lead of 47-10, an impressive feat they'll look to repeat on Tuesday.
