A feisty cat fight will be fought when the Jaguars challenge the Tigers at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.
Last Friday, Horn earned a 63-55 victory over Skyline. The win continues a trend for the Jaguars in their matchups with the Raiders: they've now won six in a row.
Meanwhile, Lancaster came tearing into Friday's matchup with 13 straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 19.8 points) and they left with even more momentum. They narrowly escaped with a victory as the squad sidled past the Eagles 57-55. Given the Tigers' advantage in MaxPreps' Texas basketball rankings (they are ranked sixth, while the Eagles are ranked 78th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Lancaster's win was their seventh straight at home, which pushed their record up to 25-5. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 73.3 points over those games. As for Horn, their victory bumped their record up to 18-13.
Horn ended up a good deal behind Lancaster when the teams last played back in January, losing 67-48. Can Horn avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
