Two dominant guards in Garrett Somers and Keaton Pratt are getting ready to go toe-to-toe. The Alcona Tigers will face off against the Roscommon Bucks at 5:30 p.m. on Wednesday. Alcona has been getting the ball to fall more lately as they've increased their point totals each of their last three games.
Alcona is headed into the game after thoroughly thrashing Whittemore-Prescott: they outscored them in every quarter. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that Alcona blew Whittemore-Prescott out of the water with a 65-18 final score. Given the Tigers' advantage in MaxPreps' Michigan basketball rankings (they are ranked 282nd, while the Cardinals are ranked 746th), the result on Thursday wasn't entirely unexpected.
