The Innovation Bulls will take on the Boone Braves at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Innovation will head into Wednesday'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 on Wednesday. They were outmatched by East River and fell 66-30. While losing is never fun, the Bulls can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Florida basketball rankings (they are ranked 665th, while the Falcons are ranked 105th).
Meanwhile, Boone was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap on Tuesday as they fell 68-62 to University. Despite running the score up even higher than they did in their prior game on Friday (56), the Braves still had to take the loss.
Innovation will need focus on slowing down Connor Summer, one of several Boone players who made an impact when they last played. He went 6 for 11 on his way to 19 points and seven rebounds. Summer's evening made it three games in a row in which he has scored at least ten points. Makauri Massey was another key player, putting up 11 points.
Boone has traveled a rocky road recently having lost three of their last four contests, which put a noticeable dent in their 7-11 record this season. That patch can't be blamed on the team's offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 60.5 points per game. As for Innovation, they dropped their record down to 3-15 with the loss, which was their fourth straight at home.
