If Holly wanted to avenge their loss from the last time they played Cheyenne Wells, they should've done a better job of containing Paige Ryser. The Cheyenne Wells Tigers blew past the Holly Wildcats 47-24 on Saturday thanks to Ryser, who almost dropped a double-double with 29 points and nine steals. She has been hot for a while, having posted three or more steals the last 19 times she's played.

Aliyah Muth was another key player, putting up five points and six rebounds. That's the most boards she has posted since back in December of 2024.

Cheyenne Wells' victory bumped their record up to 13-8. As for Holly, they have traveled a rocky road recently having lost seven of their last eight matches. That's put a noticeable dent in their 6-14 record this season.

Both teams are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Cheyenne Wells will host Elbert at 4:00 p.m. on Friday. We've got a battle between Wildcats coming up. Kit Carson has been getting the ball to fall more lately as they've increased their point totals each of their last three games.
