Holdenville relied on the efforts of Mike Piza, who posted 20 points, and Boston Lowe, who earned 19 points. Piza's big performance that afternoon made it three games in a row in which he has scored at least 20 points. Another player making a difference was Kase Sipes, who put up 12 points.
Meanwhile, Jones came up short against Crooked Oak on Saturday and fell 70-60. While losing is never fun, the Longhorns can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Oklahoma basketball rankings (they are ranked 83rd, while the Ruf-Nex are ranked 15th).
Jones has also traveled a rocky road recently, having lost three of their last four matches. That's put a noticeable dent in their 14-10 record this season. Holdenville's win bumped their record up to 23-5.
Things could have been worse for Holdenville, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 64-49 loss to Jones in their previous matchup last Thursday. Can Holdenville avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
