The Wakeland Wolverines will take on the Hebron Hawks in a tournament on Friday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this match.
Last Friday, Wakeland came up short against Highland Park and fell 62-50. While losing is never fun, the Wolverines can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Texas basketball rankings (they are ranked 206th, while the Scots are ranked 34th).
Meanwhile, Hebron also suffered a loss in their last game, but this one to Little Elm by a score of 65-55. The Hawks have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Hebron's defeat dropped their record down to 8-8. As for Wakeland, their loss ended a three-game streak of wins at home and dropped them to 11-6.
Wakeland might still be hurting after the 67-47 defeat they got from Hebron in their previous matchup back in December of 2021. Thankfully for Wakeland, Alex Cotton (who went 7 for 9 from beyond the arc on his way to 23 points) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
