Heights is on a 21-game streak of home wins (dating back to last season), while Kapaun Mt. Carmel is on a four-game streak of away wins: one of those streaks is about to end. The Heights Falcons will host the Kapaun Mt. Carmel Crusaders at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Heights knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 55 points or more in their past seven games -- so hopefully Kapaun Mt. Carmel likes a good challenge.
Last Friday, Heights strolled past West with points to spare, taking the game 56-41. Given the Falcons' advantage in MaxPreps' Kansas basketball rankings (they are ranked 15th, while the Pioneers are ranked 248th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Amalachi Wilkins continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, almost dropping a double-double with 11 points and nine rebounds. He is also on a roll when it comes to field goal percentage, as he's posted one of at least 50% in the last eight games he's played. Isaiah Carter was another key player, putting up eight points and 12 boards.
Heights smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 16 offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least eight offensive boards in eight consecutive contests.
Meanwhile, even if it wasn't a dominant performance, Kapaun Mt. Carmel beat Northwest 75-70 on Friday.
Kapaun Mt. Carmel is on a roll lately: they've won 11 of their last 12 matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-3 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 70.3 points over those games. Heights' victory bumped their record up to 17-1.
Heights didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Kapaun Mt. Carmel in their previous matchup back in January, but they still walked away with a 59-54 win. One of the biggest obstacles the team faced in that game was Kapaun Mt. Carmel's Blaise Dalian, who went 6-for-9 to rack up 15 points. Now that he's got a second chance to win this matchup, will Heights still be able to contain Dalian? There's only one way to find out.
