The Susquehannock Warriors are taking a road trip to take on the Northern York Polar Bears at 7:00 p.m. on Wednesday. Both come into the match bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Susquehannock took a loss when they played away from home on Thursday, but their home fans gave them all the motivation they needed on Monday. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 25-22 victory over Lower Dauphin. The score was all tied up 11-11 at the break, but the Warriors were the better team in the second half.
They got a good chunk of their points from the dynamic duo of Elena Snyder and Annie Laubach, who each put up seven points. Snyder also led the team in rebounds with seven.
Meanwhile, Northern York strolled past Conrad Weiser with points to spare on Monday, taking the game 60-46. Given the Polar Bears' advantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania basketball rankings (they are ranked 88th, while the Scouts are ranked 214th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Northern York has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won nine of their last ten contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 21-3 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 29.7 points over those games. Susquehannock pushed their record up to 16-9 with the win, which was their fifth straight at home.
Susquehannock came up short against Northern York in their previous matchup back in January, falling 38-29. Can Susquehannock avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
