Elyria Pioneers, riding a 8 game win streak and 14-9 season, face Sandusky Blue Streaks at the Bowling Green Regional. The winner advances to the Saturday final, with state hopes riding on Elyria’s bid to reach Cleveland East Tech and avenge prior regional losses to East Tech and Lima.
The Sandusky Streaks, built on muscle, speed, and aggressive rebounding, meet Elyria's tall front line in a pivotal matchup. Officials and free throws may decide the game as Sandusky presses and Elyria counters with a patient, pattern style offense.
