The Northern York Polar Bears will challenge the Susquehannock Warriors at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Both come into the contest bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Last Monday, Northern York strolled past Conrad Weiser with points to spare, taking the game 60-46. Given the Polar Bears' advantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania basketball rankings (they are ranked 88th, while the Scouts are ranked 214th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, there's no place like home for Susquehannock, who bounced back after a loss on the road on Thursday. They had just enough and edged out Lower Dauphin 25-22. The score was all tied up 11-11 at the break, but the Warriors were the better team in the second half.
They got a good chunk of their points from the dynamic duo of Elena Snyder and Annie Laubach, who each put up seven points. Snyder also led the team in rebounds with seven.
Northern York is on a roll lately: they've won nine of their last ten games. That's provided a nice bump to their 21-3 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 51.4 points over those games. Susquehannock pushed their record up to 16-9 with the victory, which was their fifth straight at home.
Northern York was able to grind out a solid win over Susquehannock in their previous matchup back in January, winning 38-29. Does Northern York have another victory up their sleeve, or will Susquehannock turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
