Martinsville is on a four-game streak of home losses, Ramsey a four-game streak of away losses, but someone's luck is about to change. The Martinsville Bluestreaks will be home for the holidays to greet the Ramsey Rams at 6:00 p.m. on Monday. Martinsville comes in on a streak of failing to score more than 24 points in their last three games, a trend the team is of course eager to reverse.
It's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 72-22, which was the final score in Martinsville's tilt against Cairo on Friday.
Meanwhile, Ramsey came up short against Farina South Central on Thursday and fell 57-50. Ramsey has not had much luck with Farina South Central recently, as the team's come up short the last five times they've met.

She scored a full 30% of Ramsey's points, the fourth time in a row she's earned more than a third of the team's points. Micah Greenwood was another key contributor, scoring 10 points along with 8 rebounds.
The losses dropped Martinsville to 0-8 and Cairo to 5-7.
