The East Central Hornets will venture away from home to take on the Clemens Buffaloes at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Keep an eye on the score for this one: the two teams posted some lofty point totals in their previous games.
Last Friday, East Central made easy work of SA Roosevelt and carried off a 64-43 victory. The Hornets have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won seven games by 21 points or more this season.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Clemens). They took their contest on Friday with ease, bagging a 70-17 win over Raymondville. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest victory the Buffaloes have posted since November 16, 2023.
East Central has been performing well recently as they've won five of their last six matchups, which provided a nice bump to their 13-9 record this season. Those victories were due in large part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 56.7 points per game. As for Clemens, the win made it two in a row for them and bumps their season record up to 2-10.
East Central skirted past Clemens 50-47 when the teams last played back in January. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Clemens' Duda Igiehon, who went 6 for 9 en route to 20 points plus eight rebounds. Now that she won't be playing on Tuesday, will it be easier for East Central to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
