There's no place like home for Trenton, who bounced back after a loss on the road last Thursday. They were the clear victor by a 54-31 margin over the Bradford Tornadoes on Saturday. The Tigers have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 11 matchups by 22 points or more this season.

Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Trenton to victory, but perhaps none more so than Koi Perry, who dropped a double-double on 13 points and ten rebounds. Perry is also on a roll when it comes to steals, as she's now grabbed two or more in the last 12 games she's played. Another player making a difference was Nyima Gillyard, who dropped a double-double on 17 points and 11 boards.

Trenton's win was their fifth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 14-8. They've dominated over that stretch too, winning by an average of 29.6 points. As for Bradford, they have been struggling recently as they've lost three of their last four contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 12-5 record this season.

Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. A feisty cat fight is on tap when the Trenton Tigers duke it out with the Forest Wildcats at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday. Trenton is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 52.5 points per game this season. As for Bradford, they will head out to take on Newberry at 6:00 p.m. on Monday. Newberry will roll in looking for their ninth straight victory, something Bradford surely won't give up without a fight.
