Two dominant guards in Trinity Dunn and Y'Zana Lee Randle are getting ready to go toe-to-toe. The Garner Trojans are taking a road trip to face off against the Clayton Comets at 5:30 p.m. on Monday. Garner has given up an average of 51.9 points per game this season, but Monday's game will give them a chance to turn things around.
It's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 70-32, which was the final score in Garner's tilt against South Garner on Friday. The defeat continues a trend for the Trojans in their meetings with the Titans: they've now lost eight in a row.
Meanwhile, Clayton played a tough matchup last Friday in which they were outscored in every quarter. They were outmatched by Southeast Raleigh and fell 60-25. While losing is never fun, the Comets can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' North Carolina basketball rankings (they are ranked 253rd, while the Bulldogs are ranked 33rd).
Clayton's loss dropped their record down to 7-9. As for Garner, they now have a losing record of 9-10.
Everything went Garner's way against Clayton in their previous matchup back in January, as Garner made off with a 73-53 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Trojans since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
