The Emporia High basketball teams begin a brief two-game homestand Tuesday when they host Paola.
The Lady Spartans look to continue their undefeated season by facing a 2-6 Paola squad. Paola is coached by former Emporia State Lady Hornet Jamie (Augustyn) Butler, who was a teammate of Emporia High coach Carolyn Dorsey during the 2006-07 season.
Dorsey says the Lady Spartans have to take this game seriously if they want their success to continue.
Senior Arianna Hamilton says the Lady Spartans gained confidence after Friday’s win at Topeka High.
The Emporia High boys look to extend their winning streak to three, facing a Paola team that’s 0-8.
Coach Lee Baldwin says playing at their tempo will be key.
Sophomore River Peters says the Spartans have to continue playing their style of basketball.
Game times are 6 p.m. for the girls, 7:30 p.m. for the boys. You can listen to the games on Mix 104.9 FM with coverage beginning at 5:45 p.m.
