The two teams will round out the year against one another  at 10:30  a.m. Each of these teams will be battling to keep a three-game winning streak alive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:2\">Last Friday, Montwood beat Franklin 46-35. Given the Rams&#8217; advantage  in MaxPreps&#8217; Texas basketball rankings (they are ranked 122nd, while the Cougars are ranked 304th) , the result wasn&#8217;t entirely unexpected.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:3\">Meanwhile,  you can&#8217;t lose the game if you win every quarter, and that was precisely Hanks&#8217; strategy against Horizon on Friday. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that the Knights blew the Scorpions out of the water with  a  70-14 final score. The Knights have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won eight  matchups by 20  points or more this season.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:4\">Montwood better keep an eye on <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/tx\/el-paso\/hanks-knights\/athletes\/avah-diaz\/?careerid=8o9qh23uh8iqa\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> Avah Diaz<\/a>. She was instrumental in Hanks&#8217; win,  shooting 73% from beyond the arc to rack up 43  points. Diaz&#8217;s big performance that  evening made it three games in a row in which  she has scored at least 15 points. <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.maxpreps.com\/tx\/el-paso\/hanks-knights\/athletes\/melanee-martinez\/?careerid=pnsrrhc4gd9qa\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"> Melanee Martinez<\/a> was another key player,  putting up ten points and seven  steals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:5\"> Hanks  smashed the offensive glass and  finished the game with 14  offensive boards. They are 9-1 when  they hit their own glass that hard.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:6\"> Montwood&#8217;s record is now 12-5. As for Hanks, their record now sits at 11-5.<\/p>\n<p class=\"infosentience-paragraph\" style=\"order:7\"> Everything came up roses for Montwood against Hanks in their previous matchup  back in November, as the  squad secured  a  58-30 win. Will the Rams repeat their success,  or do  the Knights have a new game plan this time around? We&#8217;ll find out soon enough.<\/p>\n<p>Article generated by <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/infosentience.com\/\">infoSentience<\/a> based on data entered on MaxPreps<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"vs 11\/07\/25 &#8211; Away58-30 W11\/01\/24 &#8211; Home41-29 W11\/04\/22 &#8211; Away60-58 W11\/14\/19 &#8211; Neutral24-44 L12\/03\/16 &#8211; Neutral53-48 W+ 2&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":102760,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[138,140,139],"class_list":["post-102759","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-el-paso","tag-el-paso","tag-el-paso-headlines","tag-el-paso-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102759","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=102759"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/102759\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/102760"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=102759"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=102759"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=102759"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
