The Bloomington Bobcats/Lady Cats will look to take advantage of their home-court for the first time this season as they take on the Luling Eagles at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.
Bloomington is headed into their home opener looking to turn things around after starting their season on the road. They took a 46-33 hit to the loss column at the hands of Danbury on Tuesday. The Bobcats/Lady Cats were down 41-20 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from.
Meanwhile, a victory for Luling just wasn't in the cards on Tuesday as the squad wasn't able to take the lead at any point. They lost 85-59 to Lockhart.
The loss doesn't tell the whole story though, as several players had good games. One of the most active was Ayden Flores, who went 8 for 14 en route to 17 points plus five rebounds and two blocks. What's more, he also posted a 57% field goal percentage, which is the highest he's posted since back in December of 2023. Another player making a difference was Jaydus Hanks, who scored nine points.
Bloomington didn't have too much breathing room in their match against Luling in their previous matchup back in December of 2017, but they still walked away with a 75-70 win. Does Bloomington have another victory up their sleeve, or will Luling turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
