The Granada Bobcats will head out on the road to challenge the Stratton Eagles at 4:00 p.m. on Friday.
On Tuesday, Granada came up short against Springfield and fell 45-34. The Bobcats haven't had much luck with the Longhorns recently, as the team has come up short the last three times they've met.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Stratton). They walked away with a 59-50 victory over Arickaree on Saturday. Given the Eagles' advantage in MaxPreps' Colorado basketball rankings (they are ranked 47th, while the Bison are ranked 183rd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Stratton has been performing well recently as they've won nine of their last 12 matchups. That somehow still isn't as good as their 16-5 record this season. Granada's defeat dropped their record down to 12-8.
Granada came up short against Stratton in their previous matchup back in March of 2023, falling 44-36. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Stratton's Sophia Isenbart, who dropped a double-double with 18 points and 11 rebounds. Now that Granada knows the damage she can cause, will they be able to stop her this time? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
