Oak Ridge is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Tuesday. They took down Kennedy 49-35. The victory continues a trend for the Trojans in their matchups with the Cougars: they've now won six in a row.

Meanwhile, in a tight matchup that could have gone either way, Lincoln made off with a 50-49 win over Pleasant Grove. Given the Trojans' advantage in MaxPreps' California basketball rankings (they are ranked 61st, while the Eagles are ranked 265th), the result on Tuesday wasn't entirely unexpected.

Lincoln is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 21-7 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 64.7 points over those games. Oak Ridge's victory was their fourth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 20-9.
