The Gar-Field Red Wolves and the Seton Conquistadors will round out the year against one another at 12:00 p.m. on Friday. Gar-Field knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 55 points or more in their past nine games -- so hopefully Seton likes a good challenge.
Gar-Field is headed into the contest after thoroughly thrashing Hylton: they outscored them in every quarter. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that the Red Wolves blew the Bulldogs out of the water with a 77-42 final score. Given the Red Wolves' advantage in MaxPreps' Virginia basketball rankings (they are ranked 22nd, while the Bulldogs are ranked 297th) , the win on Friday wasn't entirely unexpected.
