Calhan is on a six-game streak of home wins, while North Fork is on a four-game streak of away wins: one of those streaks is about to end. The Calhan Bulldogs will welcome the North Fork Miners at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday.
Calhan is probably headed into the match with a chip on their shoulder considering Simla just ended the team's six-game winning streak on Friday. They had to suffer through a 61-20 loss at the hands of the Cubs. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest loss the Bulldogs have suffered since January 29th.
Meanwhile, North Fork didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Peyton on Friday, but they still walked away with a 49-43 victory.
North Fork found their leader in sophomore Alyssa Lovelace, who went 7-for-10 on her way to 15 points and six rebounds. The dominant performance also gave Lovelace a new career-high in field goal percentage (70%). Meri Hollembeak was another key player, putting up ten points in addition to eight boards and seven assists.
North Fork smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 12 offensive boards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least 12 offensive rebounds in four consecutive contests.
North Fork has been performing well recently as they've won four of their last five matchups. That's provided a massive bump to their 11-10 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 51.4 points over those games. Calhan's defeat was their first in the league, dropping their league record down to 4-1 and their overall record down to 13-9.
