Spearman will head into Tuesday's match hoping to keep the good times rolling: they had to skate by with only a two-point margin when they last took the court, which might have inspired the 34-point drubbing they dealt Sunray on Tuesday. Spearman claimed a resounding 51-17 win over Sunray. Given the Lynx's advantage in MaxPreps' Texas basketball rankings (they are ranked 140th, while the Bobcats are ranked 1012th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
