While the Wildcats enter the tournament with a losing record, they’ll be looking to put their regular season struggles behind them and make a deep playoff run. They’ll need to be at their best against a Dighton team that has been dominant all season, dropping only one game.

The Hornets boast a high-powered offense, averaging points consistently throughout the year. The Wildcats’ defense will need to be sharp and disciplined to contain the Hornets’ scoring threats.

Despite the odds stacked against them, the Wildcats shouldn’t be counted out. Playoff basketball is a different animal, and anything can happen. If they can play with energy and execute their game plan, they have the potential to pull off an upset.
