The Fairfax Stampede will face off against the Chaparral Firebirds at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. One thing working in Fairfax's favor is that they have posted at least 55 points in their last three games.
Two weeks ago, Fairfax humbled Carl Hayden Community with a 73-13 victory. The Stampede have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 13 matches by 31 points or more this season.

Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Fairfax to victory, but perhaps none more so than Mayega Enow, who dropped a double-double with 23 points and 16 rebounds. Those 16 boards gave Enow a new career-high. Jaelynn Harvey was another key player, on her way to 20 points and six rebounds.
Fairfax smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 36 offensive rebounds. That's the most offensive boards they've managed all season.
Meanwhile, there's no place like home for Chaparral, who bounced back after a loss on the road two weeks ago. They enjoyed a cozy 42-27 win over Paradise Valley on Thursday.
Fairfax better focus on containing Kaelie Weishaar and Kendyll Dinh as the pair were huge in Chaparral's win. Weishaar dropped a double-double with 18 points and 11 boards, while Dinh posted 11 points in addition to seven rebounds and seven steals. Chaparral is 7-2 when Weishaar posts eight or more boards, but 3-11 otherwise. The team also got some help courtesy of Samantha Zadrozny, who scored four points.
Fairfax has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won nine of their last ten contests. That's provided a massive bump to their 14-9 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 22.6 points over those games. Chaparral's victory bumped their record up to 10-13.
Rebounding is likely to be a big factor in this contest: Fairfax has been crashing the boards this season, having averaged 42.8 rebounds per game. However, it's not like Chaparral struggles in that department as they've been averaging 30.3 boards. With both teams battling to corral missed shots, we'll see if one team can grab an edge.
Fairfax was taken down by Chaparral 67-39 when the teams last played back in January of 2015. Can Fairfax avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
