The Oak Forest Warriors will head out on the road to square off against the Wake Prep Academy Guardians at 5:30 p.m. on Thursday. Oak Forest is coming into the matchup hot, having won their last four games.
Oak Forest put the finishing touches on their 11th blowout victory of the season last Monday. They were the clear victor by a 59-37 margin over Hilltop Christian. Given Oak Forest's advantage in MaxPreps' North Carolina basketball rankings (they are ranked 87th, while the Chargers are ranked 371st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Wake Prep Academy can finally bid farewell to their three-game losing streak thanks to their game on Friday. They snuck past Woods Charter with a 46-40 win. The victory was just what Wake Prep Academy needed coming off of a 64-23 defeat in their prior game.
Chelsea Lange had an outrageously good game as she scored 24 points. It was the first time this season that she scored 15 or more points. The team also got some help courtesy of Olivia Langton, who scored ten points.
Oak Forest has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six matches, which provided a nice bump to their 15-5 record this season. Wake Prep Academy's record now sits at 5-12.
