After both having extra time off, the Ripley Warriors and the Tuttle Tigers will shake off the cobwebs and square off against one another at 10:00 a.m. on Friday. Ripley will be looking to extend their current three-game winning streak.
Last Friday, everything came up roses for Ripley against Coyle as the squad secured a 73-24 win. Given the Warriors' advantage in MaxPreps' Oklahoma basketball rankings (they are ranked 72nd, while the Bluejackets are ranked 346th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Tuttle). They snuck past Elk City with a 58-52 victory last Friday.
Ripley pushed their record up to 8-2 with the win, which was their 11th straight at home dating back to last season. The wins came thanks to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 24.5 points per game. As for Tuttle, they are on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four games, which provided a nice bump to their 5-2 record this season.
