The Ben Lomond Scots are headed away from home for the first time to square off against the Providence Hall Patriots at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Ben Lomond is leaving town to face Providence Hall after disappointing their home crowd in their season opener. The Scots had to suffer through a 41-14 loss at the hands of Maeser Prep Academy. Sadly, the defeat continues a streak the team started last season, making it 15 in a row.
Ben Lomond's loss shouldn't obscure the performances of Trinytee Martinez, who posted six points along with eight rebounds and three steals, and Aliyah Gonzalez, who put up a point in addition to nine boards and four steals.
Meanwhile, Providence Hall came up short against Altamont on Wednesday and fell 40-32.
Ben Lomond will have to keep a close watch on Kaydence Mataele and Emilia Chiarenza, a pair of players who had a big impact on Providence Hall's prior game. Mataele scored eight points and 11 boards, while Chiarenza almost dropped a double-double with ten points and nine rebounds. Chiarenza is also on a roll when it comes to steals, as she's now grabbed two or more in each of the last four games she's played dating back to last season.
Everything came up roses for Ben Lomond against Providence Hall in their previous meeting back in December of 2022, as the squad secured a 57-28 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Scots since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
