After both having extra time off, the Red Oak Eagles and the Preston Pirates will dust off their jerseys to take on one another at 8:00 p.m. on Friday.
Red Oak will head into Tuesday's matchup out to bounce back: they won a close one the last time they played, but unfortunately they suffered a serious change of fortune two weeks ago. They were dealt a 68-32 loss at the hands of Caddo. While losing is never fun, the Eagles can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Oklahoma basketball rankings (they are ranked 72nd, while the Bruins are ranked 16th).
