The Mt. Pleasant Kilties will take on the Hope Blue Wave at 6:00 p.m. on Tuesday. The two teams have had a bumpy ride up to this point with five consecutive losses for Mt. Pleasant and six for Hope.
It's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 65-31, which was the final score in Mt. Pleasant's tilt against Lincoln School on Friday. While losing is never fun, the Kilties can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Rhode Island basketball rankings (they are ranked 44th, while the Lynx are ranked ninth).
Meanwhile, Hope ended up a good deal behind Prout on Monday and lost 59-41.
Hope now has a losing record at 9-10. As for Mt. Pleasant, their loss dropped their record down to 5-15.
Things could have been worse for Mt. Pleasant, but things could have been a whole lot better as they took a 48-30 loss to Hope in their previous matchup back in January. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Hope's Sa-Moni McKay, who went 12 for 26 to rack up 28 points and six rebounds. Now that Mt. Pleasant knows the damage she can cause, will they be able to stop her this time? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
