The Bodine Ambassadors will venture away from home to take on the Sayre Sabres at 3:15 p.m. on Tuesday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, these teams will really light up the scoreboard.
Bodine can't be too happy about their upcoming road contest considering what happened when they opened their season away from home on Tuesday. They fell 63-55 to Mastery Charter South co-op [Mastery Charter Lenfest/Mastery Charter Thomas]. The Ambassadors have struggled against the Bulldog recently, as the game was their third consecutive lost matchup.
Even though the team lost, they still had their share of impressive performances. One of the best came from Joshua Grimes, who dropped a double-double with ten points and ten boards. The team also got some help courtesy of Nigeir Fisher, who dropped a double-double with 16 points and 11 rebounds.
Meanwhile, you're bound to get a positive result if you outscore your opponent every quarter and that's exactly how it played out for Sayre on Thursday. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that they blew South Philadelphia out of the water with a 74-29 final score. The game was all but wrapped up at the end of the third, by which point the Sabres had established a 31-point advantage.
Sayre's win came from a few key players Bodine will need to keep an eye on. One of the most notable was Abdulai Jalloh, who posted 24 points. Zahki Solomon was another key player, putting up 20 points.
Bodine skirted past Sayre 56-54 in their previous meeting back in January of 2024. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Ambassadors since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
