Basketball Game Preview: High Plains Storm vs. Fullerton Warriors

For the first time this season, High Plains will have a chance to prove themselves in a conference matchup. They will look to defend their home court on Saturday against the Fullerton Warriors.

After dropping their season opener at home, Fullerton is headed out to face a Storm squad ready to give their home crowd a win. High Plains took a 49-41 hit to the loss column at the hands of Grand Island Lutheran on Thursday.

Meanwhile, you're bound to get a positive result if you outscore your opponent every quarter and that's exactly how it played out for Fullerton on Thursday. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that they blew Burwell out of the water with a 77-19 final score. With the Warriors ahead 37-16 at the half, the contest was all but over already.

Things could have been worse for High Plains, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 60-46 loss to Fullerton in their previous matchup back in February.
