Fort Wayne Wayne and Homestead are an even 5-5 against one another since February of 2019, but not for long. Having just played yesterday, the Fort Wayne Wayne Generals will jump right back in to play the Homestead Spartans at 7:00 p.m. on Saturday. Fort Wayne Wayne has given up an average of 52.7 points per game this season, so hopefully the team got some defensive drills in this week.

Fort Wayne Wayne is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Friday. They simply couldn't be stopped as they easily beat Fort Wayne South Side 89-60. The Generals have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 11 contests by 20 points or more this season.

Meanwhile, Homestead came tearing into Friday's match with four straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 21 points), and they left with even more momentum. They came within six points of losing the streak, but they secured a 57-51 W against the Vikings. Given the Spartans' advantage in MaxPreps' Indiana basketball rankings (they are ranked 25th, while the Vikings are ranked 196th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Fort Wayne Wayne is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six games. That's provided a nice bump to their 17-6 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 73.5 points over those games. Homestead's win bumped their record up to 20-5.

Fort Wayne Wayne came out on top in a nail-biter against Homestead when the teams last played back in February, sneaking past 63-60. Will Fort Wayne Wayne repeat their success, or does Homestead have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
