Here's a few offensive stats to keep an eye on ahead of Tuesday's contest: Eaglecrest hasn't let much over the net this season, having averaged 5.6 blocks per game. It's a different story for Grandview, though, as they've been averaging only 0.3 blocks. Given Eaglecrest's sizable advantage in that area, the Wolves will need to find a way to close that gap.
Eaglecrest was able to grind out a solid win over Grandview in their previous meeting back in September, winning 3-1. Will the Raptors repeat their success, or do the Wolves have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
