The Wiggins Tigers will venture away from home to square off against the Eaton Reds at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Wiggins is coming into the game hot, having won their last three games.
Wiggins will bounce into Friday's contest after beating Wray, who they had gone 1-8 against in their nine prior meetings. Wiggins enjoyed a cozy 50-34 victory over Wray last Thursday. Given the Tigers' advantage in MaxPreps' Colorado basketball rankings (they are ranked 72nd, while the Eagles are ranked 215th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Wiggins to victory, but perhaps none more so than Tenleigh Lorenzini, who posted ten points in addition to seven rebounds and three steals. Another player making a difference was Ali Beauprez, who scored seven points and four steals.
Meanwhile, Eaton got the win against Valley on Tuesday by a conclusive 50-26. The Reds have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won eight matches by 21 points or more this season.
Eaton found their leader in sophomore Courtney Steinkamp, who earned 23 points. Steinkamp's evening made it seven games in a row in which she has scored at least 16 points. Haleigh Stanclift also deserves some recognition as she scored her first points of the season.
Eaton is on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven games. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-6 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 55.4 points over those games. Wiggins' win bumped their record up to 13-7.
