The Curtis Vikings are taking a road trip to take on the Rogers Rams at 12:00 p.m. on Saturday. One thing working in Curtis' favor is that they have posted at least 55 points in their last eight matchups.
Curtis is headed in fresh off scoring the most points they have all season. They were the clear victor by an 82-56 margin over Spanaway Lake on Wednesday. Given the Vikings' advantage in MaxPreps' Washington basketball rankings (they are ranked 118th, while the Sentinels are ranked 252nd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, you can't lose the game if you win every quarter, and that was precisely Rogers' strategy against Bethel on Wednesday. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that Rogers blew Bethel out of the water with an 85-53 final score. That 32 point margin sets a new team best for the Rams this season.
Rogers had a senior duo take command as Treyshawn Weatherspoon dropped a double-double on 18 points and ten assists and Jamaire Grant went 7 of 10 on his way to 18 points and five steals. That's the most assists Weatherspoon has posted since back in December of 2024. Another player making a difference was Zaishawn Simmons, who posted ten points.
Rogers was working as a unit and finished the game with 25 assists. That's the most assists they've managed all season.

Curtis came up short against Rogers in their previous matchup two weeks ago, falling 70-64.
