West Morgan, boasting a 15-14 record and home court advantage, enters the game as the favorites. Their high-octane offense, averaging 65.4 points per game, is led by the dynamic duo of senior guard Daniel Miller (18.2 ppg) and junior forward Michael Jones (15.4 ppg). However, their defense, allowing 67.5 points per game, needs to be sharper to contain a determined Haleyville squad.

The Haleyville Lions, despite a 8-15 record, shouldn’t be written off. They have a winning record in their region and are fueled by a win-or-go-home mentality. Their unpredictable offense, averaging 48.1 points per game, features senior guard Matthew Robinson (12.8 ppg) and junior forward David Williams (10.7 ppg). Their defense, surrendering 52.1 points per game, will need to be at its best to slow down the potent West Morgan attack.

This matchup promises to be a thrilling battle. While the Rebels have the edge on paper, the Lions’ fighting spirit and ability to pull off upsets cannot be disregarded. The outcome will likely hinge on which team executes better, capitalizes on opportunities, and minimizes mistakes down the stretch.
