Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Arkansas City walked away with it. They took down the Goddard Lions 44-30 on Tuesday. Given the Bulldogs' advantage in MaxPreps' Kansas basketball rankings (they are ranked 40th, while the Lions are ranked 195th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Arkansas City got their victory on the backs of several key players, but it was Savannah Phillips out in front who posted 18 points and seven boards. Maliyah Bell was another key player, putting up six points in addition to nine rebounds and four blocks.
Arkansas City smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 15 offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least nine offensive boards in five consecutive games.
Several Lions players turned in solid performances despite ultimately coming up short. Perhaps the best among those players was Marayah Coleman, who put up five points. Another player making a difference was Sariah Potter, who had six points and seven boards.
Arkansas City has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won 12 of their last 13 matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 19-2 record this season. Goddard is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 7-14.
As of now, neither Arkansas City nor Goddard have any future games scheduled.
