Eisenhower is 8-2 against Dekaney since January of 2022 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Friday. The Eagles will host the Wildcats at 7:00 p.m. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.

Eisenhower came into their game on Tuesday off a hard-fought close win, but unfortunately suffered a serious change of fortune. They came up short against Spring, falling 58-34.

The home team had come away the winner the last four times Dekaney and Benjamin Davis had met, but sadly for the fans who attended this one that wasn't the case. The Wildcats fell 58-46 to the Falcons on Tuesday. The Wildcats have struggled against the Falcons recently, as the game was their third consecutive lost matchup.

Dekaney's loss dropped their record down to 5-19. As for Eisenhower, their defeat dropped their record down to 9-12.

Eisenhower might still be hurting after the 53-31 loss they got from Dekaney in their previous meeting on January 7th. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of the Wildcats' Maya Shotwell, who posted 24 points along with six steals and five assists. Now that the Eagles know the damage she can cause, will they be able to stop her this time? There's only one way to find out.
