Bixby has enjoyed a six-game homestand but will soon have to dust off their road jerseys. They and the Stillwater Pioneers will face off at 8:00 p.m. on February 6th without much rest after finishing up games yesterday. One thing working in Bixby's favor is that they have posted big point totals every time they've taken the court this season.
Even though Broken Arrow scored an imposing 55 points last Saturday, Bixby still came out on top. Bixby secured a 59-55 W over the Tigers.
Meanwhile, Stillwater scored the most points they've had all season to find success on Tuesday. They took their game on the road with ease, bagging a 75-39 win over Ponca City. Given Stillwater's advantage in MaxPreps' Oklahoma basketball rankings (they are ranked 89th, while the Wildcats are ranked 259th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Bixby has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six contests, which provided a nice bump to their 12-6 record this season. As for Stillwater, the win makes it two in a row for them and bumps their season record up to 8-7.
Bixby came out on top in a nail-biter against the Pioneers in their previous meeting back in January, sneaking past 74-71. The rematch might be a little tougher for Bixby since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
