After a string of four wins, Ponder's good fortune finally ran out on Saturday. They fell 64-55 to the Anna Coyotes. The Lions lost against the Coyotes in their previous head to head back in December of 2022, too, but the margin this time around was much closer than the 61-20 score last time.
Ponder's defeat dropped their record down to 11-2. As for Anna, the victory was the sixth in a row for them, bringing their record for this year to 13-5.
Both teams will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. A feisty cat fight will be fought when the Ponder Lions take on the Fossil Ridge Panthers at 5:45 p.m. on Tuesday. Both teams are headed into the matchup with plenty of momentum (Fossil Ridge has won four straight at home, while Ponder won ten straight on the road dating back to last season), something that'll have to change. As for Anna, they will take on Lovejoy at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Anna knows how to get points on the board -- the squad has finished with 55 points or more in their past six matches -- so hopefully Lovejoy likes a good challenge.
