The Tilden Blue Devils will head out on the road to face off against the ACERO Garcia Patriots at 4:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Hopefully Tilden focused on turnovers this week since the team gave up 14 on Thursday.
Last Thursday, Tilden earned a 34-25 victory over Urban Prep-Englewood.
Tilden got their win on the backs of several key players, but it was Darius Harding out in front who scored 11 points along with 7 rebounds. The team also got some help courtesy of Jose Pacheco, who scored 6 points along with 7 rebounds and 3 steals.
Meanwhile, ACERO Garcia was beaten by DuSable 64-10 on Thursday.
The losses dropped Tilden to 1-1 and Urban Prep-Englewood to 0-3.
Everything came up roses for Tilden against ACERO Garcia in their previous meeting back in December of 2022 as the squad secured a 69-33 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for Tilden since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
