The Old Forge Blue Devils will square off against the Delaware County Christian Knights on Wednesday. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
Old Forge is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Saturday. They breezed past Sayre to the tune of 62-31. Given the Blue Devils' advantage in MaxPreps' Pennsylvania basketball rankings (they are ranked 78th, while the Redskins are ranked 419th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Meanwhile, Delaware County Christian had already won 11 in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 19.4 points) and they went ahead and made it 12 on Saturday. They put the hurt on the Rockets with a sharp 78-58 victory. The Knights pushed the score to 70-45 by the end of the third, a deficit the Rockets cut but never quite recovered from.
Old Forge better keep an eye on Khamai Orange. He was instrumental in Delaware County Christian's win, going 9-for-18 to rack up 30 points along with five assists and three steals. Orange is on a roll when it comes to steals, as he's now grabbed two or more in each of the last seven games he's played. The team also got some help courtesy of Bradford Berwick, who shot 50% from the field en route to 15 points in addition to five boards and three steals.
Old Forge is on a roll lately: they've won seven of their last eight contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 20-5 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 60.0 points over those games. Delaware County Christian pushed their record up to 26-2 with the win, which was their eighth straight at home.
