It can be hard to translate regular season success to the playoffs, but the Davie War Eagles had no problem doing just that on Tuesday. They strolled past the Nighthawks with points to spare, taking the game 69-53.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Davie to victory, but perhaps none more so than Jackson Powers, who dropped a double-double on 15 points and ten rebounds. Powers is on a roll when it comes to rebounds, as he's now pulled down ten or more in the last eight games he's played. Bryson Mickey was another key contributor, scoring 15 points along with five assists.
Davie has been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five matchups, which somehow isn't as good as their 22-4 record this season. As for Northern Guilford, this is the second loss in a row for them and nudges their season record down to 17-10.
Davie will head out on the road to square off against Grimsley at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Grimsley knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with flashy point totals in its past 22 matches -- so hopefully Davie likes a good challenge. Northern Guilford does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
