The Freedom Patriots will head out on the road to take on the Watauga Pioneers at 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Each of these teams will be fighting to keep a win streak alive as Freedom comes in on three and Watauga on five.
Last Friday, even if it wasn't a dominant performance, Freedom beat Ashe County 51-46.
Meanwhile, Watauga humbled R.J. Reynolds with a 71-20 victory. The Pioneers have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won five matches by 20 points or more this season.
Watauga has also been performing incredibly well recently as they've won nine of their last ten games, which provided a nice bump to their 10-4 record this season. The wins came thanks to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 62.7 points per game. As for Freedom, their victory bumped their record up to 10-6.
Freedom might still be hurting after the 72-52 loss they got from Watauga when the teams last played back in February of 2024. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Watauga's Kate Sears, who went 6 of 11 from beyond the arc en route to 33 points and five assists. Now that Freedom knows the damage she can cause, will they be able to stop her this time? There's only one way to find out.
