Mogollon has won seven straight games at home (dating back to last season), while Joseph City has won seven straight on the road, but those streaks won't matter much on Tuesday. The Mogollon Mustangs will take on the Joseph City Wildcats at 5:30 p.m. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
On Friday, Mogollon was fully in charge, breezing past Williams 56-27.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Joseph City). They blew past Seligman 92-10 on Friday. Given the Wildcats' advantage in MaxPreps' Arizona basketball rankings (they are ranked 53rd, while the Antelopes are ranked 286th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Mogollon has also been performing incredibly well recently as they've won eight of their last nine matches, which provided a nice bump to their 15-5 record this season. The wins came thanks to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 24.9 points per game. As for Joseph City, their victory bumped their record up to 18-4.
Things could have been worse for Mogollon, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 54-37 loss to Joseph City in their previous meeting back in December of 2024. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Joseph City's Audrey Neill, who went 6 of 11 en route to 13 points in addition to five rebounds and three blocks. Now that Mogollon knows the damage she can cause, will they be able to stop her this time? There's only one way to find out.
