Midland had already proven themselves in the regular season and they didn't miss a beat now that it's playoff time. They simply couldn't be stopped on Monday as they easily beat the West St. Mary Wolfpack 60-26. Given the Rebels' advantage in MaxPreps' Louisiana basketball rankings (they are ranked 35th, while the Wolfpack are ranked 189th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Midland has been performing well recently as they've won eight of their last ten matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 27-11 record this season. They've dominated over that stretch too, winning by an average of 38 points. West St. Mary's loss dropped their record down to 15-12.
Looking ahead, Midland will face off against Merryville on Thursday. One thing working in Midland's favor is that they have posted at least 55 points in their last four games. West St. Mary does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
