Norfolk Christian was beaten by Wilmington Christian Academy 78-48 back in November. The matchup was up for grabs at halftime, but sadly the Ambassadors struggled afterwards.
The losing side was boosted by Ajian Skeete, who shot 50% from the field to rack up 16 points. John Wesley Davis was another key player, putting up nine points and six boards.
Meanwhile, you can't lose the game if you win every quarter, and that was precisely Oaktree Academy's strategy against Gateway Christian on Tuesday.

The Grizzlies pushed the score to 58-31 by the end of the third, a deficit Gateway Christian had little chance of recovering from.
Everything came up roses for Norfolk Christian against Oaktree Academy in their previous meeting back in January, as the team secured a 61-34 victory. In that contest, the Ambassadors amassed a halftime lead of 45-16, an impressive feat they'll look to repeat on Wednesday.
