Tellico Plains had to skate by with only a three-point margin when they last took the court, which might have inspired the 24-point drubbing they dealt Tyner Academy on Friday. The Tellico Plains Bears put the hurt on the Tyner Academy Rams with a sharp 76-52 win. Given the Bears' advantage in MaxPreps' Tennessee basketball rankings (they are ranked 113th, while the Rams are ranked 233rd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Tellico Plains is on a roll lately: they've won eight of their last ten matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 15-10 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 60.8 points over those games. This is the second loss in a row for Tyner Academy and nudges their season record down to 9-13.
Looking ahead, Tellico Plains will face off against McMinn Central on Monday. Each of these teams will be fighting to keep a win streak alive as McMinn Central comes in on 25 and Tellico Plains on five. Tyner Academy does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
