The Flushing Raiders will venture away from home to challenge the Holly Bronchos at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Keep an eye on the score for this one: the two teams posted some lofty point totals in their previous games.
Holly will be up against a hot Flushing squad: the team just extended their winning streak to four. Flushing blew past Corunna 75-40 on Tuesday. Given the Raiders' advantage in MaxPreps' Michigan basketball rankings (they are ranked 222nd, while the Cavaliers are ranked 628th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Holly). They took down Fenton 80-66 on Saturday. The score was all tied up 34-34 at the break, but the Bronchos were the better team in the second half.
Flushing is also on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six games, which provided a nice bump to their 9-6 record this season. The wins came thanks to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 60.3 points per game. As for Holly, the win (which was their third in a row) raised their record to 5-12.
Flushing was able to grind out a solid victory over Holly when the teams last played back in January, winning 53-45. The rematch might be a little tougher for Flushing since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
