A feisty cat fight will be fought as the Cardinals take on the Panthers on Tuesday. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
Fairview will be up against a hot Lacassine team: the squad just extended their winning streak to 26. Lacassine took their contest back in February with ease, bagging a 75-27 victory over Episcopal of Acadiana. Given the Cardinals' advantage in MaxPreps' Louisiana basketball rankings (they are ranked 35th, while the Falcons are ranked 307th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Fairview walked away with it. Everything went their way against the Rockets on Friday as they made off with a 75-53 win.
Lacassine's victory was their 13th straight at home, which pushed their record up to 32-2. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 72.9 points over those games. As for Fairview, they have been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four games. That's provided a nice bump to their 31-16-1 record this season.
Everything came up roses for Lacassine against Fairview in their previous matchup back in December of 2024, as the team secured a 78-43 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Lacassine since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
