The Cannon County Lions and Lionettes high school basketball teams are back at home tonight as they host the Upperman Bees and Lady Bees basketball teams. Lady Bees are 11-0 in District play and they have clinched at least a tie of being regular season champions with three games left to go. Upperman enters the game on a 18 game winning streak. These two teams met in Baxter January 12 and it resulted in a 62-26 win for the team from Baxter.
The Cannon County Lions should be focused for their game against the Bees. Coming off a win on the road against York, the Lions have put themselves in a position for a chance to finish the district season strong and climb out of last place heading into the tournament. It’s one game at a time and tonight is the rematch of a game they lost in January in a heartbreaking fashion. Both Bee teams are ranked in the top ten in the state.
The games will be on live on AM-1540/FM107.9 WBRY streaming live on wbry.com. Tipoff is at 6 tonight.
