Flagstaff is on a four-game streak of home wins (dating back to last season), while Prescott is on a three-game streak of away wins: one of those streaks is about to end. The Flagstaff Eagles will take on the Prescott Badgers at 3:45 p.m. on Tuesday. Flagstaff knows how to get runs on the board -- the squad has finished with flashy run totals in its past four contests -- so hopefully Prescott likes a good challenge.
