The Edison Academy Pioneers will be taking part in a tournament against the Detroit Country Day Yellowjackets at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday. One thing working in Edison Academy's favor is that they have posted at least 55 points in their last six games.
Edison Academy picked up another tournament win on Wednesday. They simply couldn't be stopped as they easily beat Ferndale 77-27. The Pioneers have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won eight matchups by 21 points or more this season.
Meanwhile, Detroit Country Day had already won seven in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 30.1 points) and they went ahead and made it eight on Wednesday. They enjoyed a cozy 66-49 victory over the Bulldogs. Given the Yellowjackets' advantage in MaxPreps' Michigan basketball rankings (they are ranked 15th, while the Bulldogs are ranked 89th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Edison Academy is on a roll lately: they've won 15 of their last 19 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 19-7 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 59.9 points over those games. Detroit Country Day's win bumped their record up to 21-5.
Edison Academy skirted past Detroit Country Day 59-57 in their previous meeting back in March of 2024. One of the biggest obstacles the team faced in that game was Detroit Country Day's Cece Arico, who almost dropped a double-double with 25 points and nine rebounds.
