The Loveland Red Wolves will challenge the Windsor Wizards at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday. Loveland is strutting in with some offensive muscle as they've averaged 60.1 points per game this season.

Loveland's success was spearheaded by the efforts of Zayne Desouza, who dropped a double-double with 22 points and 11 rebounds, and Jackson Gebhardt, who went 7-for-12 from beyond the arc to rack up 23 points. What's more, Gebhardt also posted four assists, the most he's had since back in January of 2024. Jax Poole was another key player, putting up two points and six assists.

They strolled past the Lobos with points to spare, taking the game 64-49. Given the Wizards' advantage in MaxPreps' Colorado basketball rankings (they are ranked 33rd, while the Lobos are ranked 86th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
