Bison has gone 9-1 against McIntosh recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Tuesday. A feisty cat fight is on tap when the Bison Cardinals take on the McIntosh Tigers at 2:30 p.m. Bison is coming into the game on a three-game losing streak.

Last Friday, Bison had to suffer through a 60-18 loss at the hands of Kadoka. While losing is never fun, the Cardinals can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' South Dakota basketball rankings (they are ranked 149th, while the Kougars are ranked 31st).

Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask McIntosh). They blew past Lemmon 72-48 on Thursday. The victory was a breath of fresh air for the Tigers as it put an end to their three-game losing streak.

McIntosh's win bumped their record up to 6-10. As for Bison, their loss dropped their record down to 1-12.

Things could have been worse for Bison, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 45-30 loss to McIntosh in their previous meeting back in January. Can Bison avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
