The Greenwood Wildcats will take on the Linville Hill Warriors on Saturday. Greenwood has been getting the ball to fall more lately as they've increased their point totals each of their last three games.
Greenwood is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Wednesday. They took their match with ease, bagging a 51-12 victory over Upper Bucks Christian. Given the Wildcats' advantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania basketball rankings (they are ranked 185th, while Upper Bucks Christian are ranked 631st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, Linville Hill came tearing into Wednesday's game with six straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 18.3 points), and they left with even more momentum. They strolled past the Lions with points to spare, taking the game 49-35.
Greenwood has been performing well recently as they've won eight of their last ten contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 21-7 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 27.5 points on average over those games. Linville Hill's record is now 25-2.
Greenwood couldn't quite get it done against Linville Hill in their previous meeting back in February as they fell 46-33. Can Greenwood avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
