The Tioga Tigers will be taking part in a tournament against the Athens Wildcats at 6:00 p.m. on Saturday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Last Thursday, Tioga ended up a good deal behind Sayre and lost 72-56. The Tigers were down 58-36 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from.
Meanwhile, Athens came up short against Waverly on Thursday and fell 48-36. The contest marked the Wildcats' lowest-scoring match so far this season.
Tioga will have to contain Adam Kemp as he made an impact in Athens' last game. He went 6 for 15 on his way to 13 points and five rebounds. Nick Grazul was another key player, putting up seven points and eight rebounds.
Tioga came up short against Athens in their previous meeting back in December of 2022, falling 66-61. Thankfully for Tioga, Mason Lister (who went 12 of 20 on his way to 25 points and seven rebounds) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
