The Harvey Red Raiders will head out on the road to challenge the Howland Tigers at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Hopefully Harvey focused on turnovers this week since the team gave up 22 on Saturday.
Last Saturday, Harvey was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap as they fell 57-52 to Chaney. Harvey has now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Despite the defeat, Harvey saw an underclassman step up: Chase Goines scored 14 points. Braylon Johnson was another key contributor, scoring eight points.
Meanwhile, Howland fought the good fight in their overtime game against Ursuline on Thursday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They took a 62-53 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Fighting Irish. While losing is never fun, Howland can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Ohio basketball rankings (they are ranked 237th, while Ursuline is ranked 14th).
Howland's loss came about despite a quality game from Alex Henry, who scored 21 points along with seven assists and five rebounds. The team also got some help courtesy of John Perry, who scored 13 points along with seven rebounds.
Harvey's record now sits at 10-12. Howland's record now sits at 11-11.
Tuesday's contest is shaping up to be a masterclass in shooting: Harvey have been dynamite from deep this season, having made 39.6% of their threes per game. However, it's not like Howland struggles in that department as they've made 40% of their threes this season. Given these competing strengths, it'll be interesting to see how their clash plays out.
