The Lewisburg Green Dragons will square off against the Forest Hills Rangers at 5:00 p.m. on Saturday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.
Last Saturday, Lewisburg didn't have too much trouble with Selinsgrove as they won 57-41. Given the Green Dragons' advantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania basketball rankings (they are ranked 84th, while the Seals are ranked 221st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, Forest Hills extended their postseason success last Monday against Penn Cambria. They enjoyed a cozy 65-51 victory over the Panthers. The win was nothing new for the Rangers as they're now sitting on three straight.
Forest Hills' win came from a few key players Lewisburg will need to keep an eye on. One of the most notable was Eva Myers, who posted 16 points and five boards. She continues to improve, besting her previous point total in each of the last three games she's played. The team also got some help courtesy of Morgan Gdula, who scored 11 points and five steals.
Lewisburg has been performing well recently as they've won nine of their last 11 matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 19-6 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 55.9 points over those games. Forest Hills pushed their record up to 16-8 with the victory, which was their sixth straight on the road.
