The Shaker Bison will take on the Green Tech Eagles at 4:15 p.m. on Sunday. Both come into the match bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Shaker is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Thursday. They took down Colonie Central 55-36. Given the Bison's advantage in MaxPreps' New York basketball rankings (they are ranked 27th, while the Wolfpack are ranked 193rd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, Green Tech came tearing into Thursday's contest with six straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 38.5 points), and they left with even more momentum. They came within a single point of losing the streak, but they secured a 53-52 W against the Brothers.
Shaker better keep an eye on U'Mier Graham. He was instrumental in Green Tech's win, dropping a double-double with 16 points and 13 rebounds. Graham is on a roll when it comes to boards, as he's now pulled down ten or more in each of the last eight games he's played. The team also got some help courtesy of Indavier Barnes, who posted 11 points.
Green Tech was working as a unit and finished the game with 14 assists. They are 12-3 when they've passed the ball that well.
Shaker has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 12 of their last 13 games. That's provided a nice bump to their 19-3 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 72.8 points over those games. Green Tech's record now sits at 13-7.
Shaker lost to Green Tech on the road by a decisive 66-52 margin in their previous meeting back in February of 2024. Can Shaker avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
