The Cosby Titans and the Manchester Lancers will face off at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday without much rest having both just played. Cosby knows how to get points on the board -- the squad has finished with 55 points or more in their past eight contests -- so hopefully Manchester likes a good challenge.
Cosby is headed in fresh off scoring the most points they have all season. They claimed a resounding 109-4 win over Richmond City School of the Arts. Given the Titans' advantage in MaxPreps' Virginia basketball rankings (they are ranked 43rd, while the Bulldogs are ranked 368th), the result on Monday wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, there's no place like home for Manchester, who bounced back after a loss on the road on Thursday. They walked away with a 65-54 victory over Monacan on Monday. The Lancers haven't had any issues with the Chiefs recently, as the game was their eighth consecutive win against them.
Manchester pushed their record up to 16-3 with the victory, which was their sixth straight at home. Those victories came thanks in part to their defensive effort, having only surrendered 26.3 points over those games. As for Cosby, they are on a roll lately: they've won nine of their last ten games, which provided a nice bump to their 14-4 record this season.
Cosby came up short against Manchester when the teams last played back in January, falling 43-36. A big factor in that loss was the dominant performance of Manchester's Rayne Wright, who dropped a double-double with 17 points and 12 rebounds. Now that Cosby knows the damage she can cause, will they be able to stop her this time? There's only one way to find out.
