Goldthwaite is on a 16-game streak of home wins (dating back to last season), while Evadale is on a ten-game streak of away wins: one of those streaks is about to end. The Goldthwaite Eagles will host the Evadale Rebels at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday.
Goldthwaite is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Thursday. They walked away with a 53-40 victory over Ben Bolt. Given the Eagles' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas basketball rankings (they are ranked 619th, while the Badgers are ranked 1442nd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, a well-balanced attack led Evadale over Weimar in every quarter on their way to victory on Friday. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that Evadale blew Weimar out of the water with a 65-37 final score. The Rebels have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 20 matches by 24 points or more this season.
Evadale had a senior duo take command as Jaden Gravis almost dropped a double-double with 18 points and nine rebounds and Warren Brewer en route to 20 points and seven boards. Gravis has been hot, having also posted two or more steals the last six times he's played. Talon Bennett was another key player, putting up eight points in addition to five boards and three steals.
Goldthwaite is on a roll lately: they've won 20 of their last 22 contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 24-6 record this season. They've dominated over that stretch too, winning by an average of 35.9 points. Evadale's win bumped their record up to 31-7.
