The DeLand Bulldogs will take on the Hagerty Huskies at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Both come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
While Bulldogs fans will have to keep waiting for their squad to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Monday's season opener. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 37-35 win over Eau Gallie on Monday. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest victory the Bulldogs have posted since January 7th.
Meanwhile, Hagerty put another one in the bag on Thursday to keep their perfect season alive. Everything went their way against International Community as they made off with an 87-65 win. The Huskies pushed the score to 66-43 by the end of the third, a deficit the Comets cut but never quite recovered from.
DeLand better keep an eye on Asa Kohn. He was instrumental in Hagerty's win, going 12-for-20 to rack up 31 points in addition to eight assists and five boards. The contest was Kohn's 14th in a row with at least 15 points. Another player making a difference was Jayden McCrae, who shot 58% from the field en route to 17 points.
Hagerty was working as a unit and finished the game with 25 assists. They racked up nine more assists than International Community's also-impressive total of 16.
Things could have been worse for DeLand, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 69-52 loss to Hagerty in their previous matchup back in November of 2023. Can the Bulldogs avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
