Basketball Recap: Saturday's Victory Is Tucker's 16th in Last 18 Outings

Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Tucker walked away with it. They narrowly escaped with a win as the team sidled past the East Forsyth Broncos 62-59. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest victory the Tigers have posted since December 21, 2023.

Tucker has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 16 of their last 18 games. That's provided a nice bump to their 24-6 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 73.1 points over those games. East Forsyth's loss dropped their record down to 18-12.

Coming up, a feisty cat fight will be fought as the Tigers face off against the Cardinals on Wednesday. Each of these teams will be fighting to keep a win streak alive as Jonesboro comes in on four and Tucker on six. East Forsyth does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
