Tinora took a loss when they played away from home last Tuesday, but their home fans gave them all the motivation they needed on Thursday. They blew past Holgate, posting a 50-11 victory. That looming 50-11 mark stands out as the most commanding margin for the Rams yet this season.

Given the Panthers' advantage in MaxPreps' Ohio basketball rankings (they are ranked 298th, while the Aces are ranked 599th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
