Grant is preparing for their first district matchup of the season on Friday. They will challenge the Peabody Warhorses.
On Tuesday, Grant was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap as they fell 50-44 to Weston. The Cougars have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Peabody). They blew past Northwood, posting a 74-6 victory. Given the Warhorses' advantage in MaxPreps' Louisiana basketball rankings (they are ranked 114th, while the Gators are ranked 307th) , the win on Monday wasn't entirely unexpected.
Grant's defeat dropped their record down to 7-5. As for Peabody, with the win, they broke their three-game losing streak and moved their record to 9-13.
Grant lost to Peabody on the road by a decisive 40-24 margin in their previous meeting back in January of 2025. Can the Cougars avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
