Prairie Heights is preparing for their first conference matchup of the season on Saturday. They are taking a road trip to challenge the Garrett Railroaders at 8:00 p.m. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Prairie Heights can't be too happy about their upcoming road contest considering what happened when they opened their season away from home on Tuesday. They fell 63-52 to Jimtown.
Meanwhile, Garrett unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-court advantage in their season opener. They lost 70-44 to Heritage on Wednesday. The Railroaders were down 48-28 at the end of the third quarter, and things only got worse from there.
Prairie Heights will have to contain Ayden O'Neal as he made an impact in Garrett's last game. He went 8-for-10 en route to 22 points and eight boards. Another player making a difference was Ari Hippensteel, who posted seven points.
