Tug Valley has gone a perfect 10-0 against Sherman recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Wednesday. The Tug Valley Panthers will face off against the Sherman Tide at 7:00 p.m. Tug Valley knows how to get points on the board -- the squad has finished with 55 points or more in their past 23 games -- so hopefully Sherman likes a good challenge.

Tug Valley is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Friday. They beat Gilmer County by the very same score they won with in their prior game: 86-49. The Panthers have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won eight matches by 25 points or more this season.

Meanwhile, even if it wasn't a dominant performance, Sherman beat Wirt County 48-42 on Friday.

Sherman is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last eight contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-9 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 57.9 points over those games. Tug Valley's win bumped their record up to 22-2.

Everything came up roses for Tug Valley against Sherman in their previous meeting two weeks ago, as the team secured a 69-30 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for Tug Valley since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
