The Dallas Mountaineers will square off against the Valley View Cougars at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Dallas is coming into the matchup hot, having won their last three games.
Last Tuesday, Dallas didn't have too much trouble with Tunkhannock as they won 50-35. Given the Mountaineers' advantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania basketball rankings (they are ranked 125th, while the Tigers are ranked 563rd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Valley View walked away with it. They were the clear victor by a 57-33 margin over the Spartans on Tuesday. The Cougars have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won ten games by 21 points or more this season.
Valley View has been performing well recently as they've won six of their last eight contests. That somehow still isn't as good as their 18-5 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 59.6 points over those games. Dallas' win bumped their record up to 18-7.
