Two dominant guards in Loucas Shoaf and Cal Pass Jr. are getting ready to go toe-to-toe. The Oak Grove Grizzlies will challenge the Crest Chargers on Tuesday. Oak Grove knows how to get points on the board -- the squad has finished with 55 points or more in their past ten contests -- so hopefully Crest likes a good challenge.
Oak Grove is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Friday. They narrowly escaped with a win as the team sidled past East Henderson 75-72. For those keeping track at home, that's the closest victory the Grizzlies have posted since February 14, 2024.
Meanwhile, it may have taken overtime to finish the job, but Crest ultimately got the result they hoped for on Friday. They managed a 64-58 win over Northwest Cabarrus. Given the Chargers' advantage in MaxPreps' North Carolina basketball rankings (they are ranked 45th, while the Trojans are ranked 164th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Crest has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won nine of their last ten games. That's provided a nice bump to their 21-3 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 71.5 points over those games. Oak Grove's victory bumped their record up to 19-6.
