The Reno Huskies had already won two in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 11.5 points), and they went ahead and made it three on Tuesday. They strolled past Galena with points to spare, taking the game 55-36. That's another feather in the cap for Reno, who also won these teams' last head-to-head.
It was another big night for Aidan Casey, who scored 22 points. As a matter of fact, that's the most points he has scored all season. The team also got some help courtesy of Harvey Smerdon, who scored 14 points along with two steals.
Reno's win was their seventh straight at home, which pushed their record up to 14-4. Those victories were due in large part to their offensive dominance across that stretch, as they averaged 62.4 points per game. As for Galena, they are on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 11-7.
Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Reno will play host again and welcome Spanish Springs, where tip off is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. on Friday. One thing working in Spanish Springs' favor is that they have posted big point totals in their last three matchups. As for Galena, they will look to defend their home court on Friday against Bishop Manogue at 7:00 p.m. The matchup should be an exciting one, as these teams are ranked near one another in Nevada (Bishop Manogue is ranked 41st, while Galena is ranked 39th).
