The Page Patriots will head out on the road to take on the Ravenwood Raptors at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. The teams are on pretty different trajectories at the moment (Page has three straight wins, Ravenwood has four straight defeats), but none of that matters once you're on the court.
While Page didn't have the best season last year (they finished 12-17), it's starting to look like those struggles are a thing of the past. They walked away with a 52-45 victory over Hendersonville on Tuesday. Given the Patriots' advantage in MaxPreps' Tennessee basketball rankings (they are ranked 32nd, while the Commandos are ranked 131st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, Ravenwood came up short against Lipscomb Academy on Tuesday and fell 70-60. That's two games in a row now that the Raptors have lost by exactly ten points.
Ravenwood's loss dropped their record down to 2-5. As for Page, they pushed their record up to 6-1 with the win, which was their fourth straight at home dating back to last season.
Page was able to grind out a solid victory over Ravenwood in their previous matchup back in February, winning 54-44. The rematch might be a little tougher for Page since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
