The Gibbon Buffaloes are taking a road trip to square off against the Ord Chanticleers at 7:45 p.m. on Friday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, both will really light up the scoreboard.
On Tuesday, Gibbon came up short against Shelton and fell 73-65.
Meanwhile, Ord ended up a good deal behind Cozad on Tuesday and lost 76-57. While losing is never fun, the Chanticleers can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Nebraska basketball rankings (they are ranked 146th, while the Haymakers are ranked 29th).
Gibbon's loss was their third straight on the road, which dropped their record down to 4-6. That patch can't be blamed on the team's offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 55.3 points per game. As for Ord, they have traveled a rocky road recently having lost four of their last five matchups, which put a noticeable dent in their 3-6 record this season.
Gibbon might still be hurting after the 58-37 defeat they got from Ord in their previous meeting back in January of 2024. Can Gibbon avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
