It was a proper cat-fight when Whitehaven faced off against Jackson Central Merry on Tuesday. The Tigers took down the Cougars 63-46.

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Kirby). They snuck past Booker T. Washington with a 63-58 victory on Wednesday. Winning may never get old, but the Cougars sure are getting used to it with their third in a row.

Whitehaven strolled past Kirby when the teams last played back in February of 2019 by a score of 75-57. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Tigers since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
