The Heritage Christian Academy Chargers will be playing at home against the West Franklin Falcons at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. Both teams come into the contest bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
Last Monday, Heritage Christian Academy beat Osage City 49-38. The victory made it back-to-back wins for Heritage Christian Academy.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Heritage Christian Academy to victory, but perhaps none more so than Landon Pittman, who scored 15 points. That makes it two consecutive games in which Pittman has scored at least 25% of Heritage Christian Academy's points. Lucas Prado was another key contributor, scoring 13 points along with 5 rebounds.
Even though West Franklin has not done well against Santa Fe Trail recently (they were 0-4 in their previous four matchups), they didn't let the past get in their way on Monday. West Franklin narrowly escaped with a win as the squad sidled past Santa Fe Trail 65-62. Having run the score up that high, both teams might be doing some extra defensive drills very soon.
The wins kept both teams' perfect 2-0 season records intact.
