On Friday, Shoemaker was able to grind out a solid win over Killeen, taking the game 42-35. Given the Wolves' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas basketball rankings (they are ranked 98th, while the Kangaroos are ranked 440th) , the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Bryan). They put the hurt on Killeen with a sharp 76-51 victory on Tuesday.
Bryan pushed their record up to 16-13 with the win, which was their third straight at home. The home victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 62.7 points over those games. As for Shoemaker, their record now sits at 26-6.
Everything came up roses for Shoemaker against Bryan in their previous matchup back in January, as the team secured a 58-21 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Wolves since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
