Cooper has gone 9-1 against Ryle recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Thursday. The Cooper Jaguars will challenge the Ryle Raiders at 7:00 p.m. One thing working in Cooper's favor is that they have posted at least 55 points in their last five contests.
Cooper took a loss when they played away from home on Friday, but their home fans gave them all the motivation they needed on Tuesday. They simply couldn't be stopped as they easily beat Boone County 68-18. The Jaguars have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 12 games by 20 points or more this season.
Meanwhile, Ryle posted their biggest victory since January 22nd on Tuesday. They claimed a resounding 54-24 win over Conner. The Raiders have beaten the Cougars the last six times they've met, but they better watch out: this was the closest the Cougars has come to flipping the script.
Cooper better focus on containing Jayden (Jay) Mcclain and Jaelyn Jones as the pair were huge in Ryle's win. (Jay) Mcclain dropped a double-double with 16 points and 11 rebounds, while Jones almost dropped a double-double with 14 points and nine boards. What's more, Jones racked up six assists, the most she's had since back in January. Olivia Wetter also deserves some recognition as she posted her first assist of the season.
Cooper is on a roll lately: they've won nine of their last ten matches. That's provided a nice bump to their 21-5 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 59.4 points over those games. Ryle's victory bumped their record up to 9-21.
Cooper didn't have too much breathing room in their contest against Ryle in their previous meeting back in January, but they still walked away with a 56-51 win. One of the biggest obstacles the team faced in that game was (Jay) Mcclain, who went 9-for-22 on her way to 23 points in addition to seven boards and three blocks. Now that she's got a second chance to win this matchup, will Cooper still be able to contain (Jay) Mcclain? There's only one way to find out.
