A feisty cat fight is on tap when the Dryden Cardinals challenge the Armada Tigers at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday... One thing working in Dryden's favor is that they have posted at least 55 points in their last three matches.
If Dryden beats Armada with 67 points on Wednesday, it's going to be the squad's new lucky number: they've won their past two games with that exact score. Dryden took their contest on Friday with ease, bagging a 67-26 win over Saginaw Arts & Sciences Academy.
Meanwhile, there's no place like home for Armada, who bounced back after a loss on the road on Tuesday. They skirted past Almont 50-48. Given the Tigers' advantage in MaxPreps' Michigan basketball rankings (they are ranked 201st, while the Raiders are ranked 411th), the result on Friday wasn't entirely unexpected.
