The Delhi Bears will take on the Ferriday Trojans on Friday. Delhi will be looking to extend their current seven-game winning streak.
Delhi is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Tuesday. They secured a 50-45 W over Arcadia.
Delhi had a senior duo take command as Jay Wright made all 5 shots he took for 15 points and Dustin D Ykes made all 5 shots he took racking up 13 points.
Meanwhile, Ferriday earned an 81-69 victory over Lake Arthur on Tuesday. Given the Trojans' advantage in MaxPreps' Louisiana basketball rankings (they are ranked 126th, while the Tigers are ranked 261st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Ferriday has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a nice bump to their 24-11 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 72.0 points over those games. Delhi's win bumped their record up to 20-13.
Everything went Delhi's way against Ferriday when the teams last played back in November of 2022, as Delhi made off with a 68-44 victory. Does Delhi have another victory up their sleeve, or will Ferriday turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
