QUINCY, Ill. (WGEM) - After weeks of waiting and anticipating a second meeting against (22-3) Moline on the Western Big Six hardwood, the two conference giants will finally square off tonight at Blue Devil Gym. All week long the (20-3) Blue Devils have had a chance to practice and focus in on facing MHS in a game that may well determine what squad will win the conference crown this season.
The Maroons check in with a perfect (10-0) conference slate while QHS is now (9-1). The one loss for the Blue Devils of course came back on December 16 at Moline High School. The “Blue & White” dropped a tough 56-44 decision against big man Owen Freeman and MHS star guard Brock Harding. The two University Of Iowa signees played a large role in beating the Devils during their first meeting. How well Quincy slows down and contains the Moline “Dynamic Duo” on Friday, may very well determine what team wins and losses this highly anticipated “game of the weekend” in the Western Big Six.
Get your popcorn ready Blue Devil Nation. This “conference confrontation” in “The Gem City” is going to be special from the opening tip!
