Howells-Dodge (5-3) takes on GACC (3-2) in the opening round of the Homer Holiday Tournament on Saturday.
The Bluejays upended Crofton 55-45 at home on Saturday, December 14th.
GACC has been off for quite a while so it's hard to know what to expect from them.
You really don't know what you're going to get from the Bluejays in this one.
I fully expect the Jaguars to have their hands full in this one.
I think Howells-Dodge has to be better defensively than they have been lately.
I feel like the Jaguars have struggled on defense in their losses and even in the Clarkson/Leigh game.
The defense was really stout to start, but over the last few games has kind of taken a few steps back.
I think the key to beating GACC is playing good defense.
Howells-Dodge has to get back to their roots of playing great defense.
The Jaguars can definitely do that too, and I think Howells-Dodge has a great chance to play really good defense against the Bluejays.
I think the Jaguars have a great chance of winning this game and getting to the championship.
GACC comes in with a lot of confidence though.
At the same time, you have to wonder how the Bluejays will do being they've been off for over two weeks.
The Jaguars have played more games so far so I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing for Howells-Dodge.
I fully expect the Jaguars to be well rested and ready to go on Saturday.
It should be a heck of a game that comes down to the wire.
It wouldn't surprise me if the game was decided in the final minutes or seconds.
Tip-off is scheduled for 2:00 p.m. in Homer.

Howells-Dodge (1-7) battles GACC (6-1) in the first round of the Homer Holiday Tournament on Saturday.
The Bluejays won 50-44 at home over Norfolk Catholic on Saturday.
This is one of those games that looks like somewhat of a mismatch on paper.
That simply means the Jaguars have to come out and play inspired.
Howells-Dodge has played well at times this year, they just haven't been consistent.
The Jaguars have been in most of their games, but scoring has been an issue in most games.
Howells-Dodge has to go back to what they did offensively against the Bulldogs and do that on Saturday.
There are things and games to build off of if you are the Jaguars.
Howells-Dodge has to come out and handle GACC's press and play their hearts out.
I'm sure not many people are giving the Jaguars a chance in this one so Howells-Dodge has to go out there and prove everyone wrong.
The Jaguars have talent, they are just young.
Hopefully the close losses in the first half of the season turn into wins in the second half of the year.
Howells-Dodge has to get off to a fast start on Saturday, and put the pressure on the Bluejays.
The Jaguars have to try and play with the lead as much as possible.
Hopefully Howells-Dodge did a lot of shooting today and during the moratorium period.
The Jaguars simply need to find offensive consistency and an identity.
Howells-Dodge has to put more shots down the well and identify some offensive leaders.
Pokorny has stepped up and Macholan did one game as did Perrin, but these girls have to score double digits consistently and together on a nightly basis.
The Jaguars have to treat this game with GACC as a chance to upset a top power and pull off a shocker.
Game time is set for noon in Homer.
