The Rams and Huskies are both coming off narrow victories where they made clutch plays and big shots at the finish. Mineral Wells held home court Tuesday night with a 79-76 overtime win over Burkburnett. Hirschi, which lost a home to the Bulldogs, won 52-51 at Coyote Fieldhouse. I thought we played with a little more poise down the stretch. We stayed in there and shot our free throws well.
Tonight is another big game.
Mineral Wells has two good scorers and other players who are really solid. Josh Duckett leads the Rams and is third in 5-4A with 19.5 points per game. He is coming off a 30-point effort. Trey Carr is right behind at 17.9 and had 27 earlier this week. Hirschi is led by senior forward A.J. Zolicoffer, who has scored 39 points in two league games.
