Mayo and Owatonna are an even 5-5 against one another since December of 2019, but not for long. The Mayo Spartans will look to defend their home court on Friday against the Owatonna Huskies at 7:30 p.m. Mayo knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 55 points or more in their past 13 games -- so hopefully Owatonna likes a good challenge.
If Mayo beats Owatonna with 76 points on Friday, it's going to be the squad's new lucky number: they've won their past two matches with that exact score. Mayo beat John Marshall on Friday by the very same score they won with in their prior game: 76-69.
Meanwhile, Owatonna was not able to break out of their rough patch on Tuesday as the team picked up their third straight loss. They were four points away from ending the streak, but they lost a 63-59 heartbreaker at the hands of Faribault. While losing is never fun, the Huskies can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Minnesota basketball rankings (they are ranked 139th, while the Falcons are ranked 49th).
Mayo has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won ten of their last 11 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 19-7 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 76.4 points over those games. Owatonna's defeat dropped their record down to 13-15.
Mayo won a game that couldn't have been any closer in their previous matchup back in January, slipping by Owatonna 66-65. Does Mayo have another victory up their sleeve, or will Owatonna turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
