Two teams who went through a successful January meet up tonight for what will determine what happens to the regular season district champions as the Cannon County Lions meet the Livingston Wildcats at Robert A Harris Gymnasium in Woodbury. Cannon went undefeated in the month of January and set atop District 8-AA with an 11-1 record. Livingston lost only one game in the first month of the year and that was the previous meeting when Cannon squandered a big lead but rolled out of Livingston behind Jacob Nave’s three point overtime buzzer beater to win 73-72. If Cannon wins tonight they’ll clinch the regular season top spot as the loss would not only mean a season sweep of the Cats but also a two game lead in the standings with one game left on the schedule. If Livingston wins, they’ll tie for first and then the focus will be on that last regular season game. Both teams play their rivalries in the last game of the season meaning Upperman plays Livingston at Livingston on Thursday. The Cannon County Lionettes will try to move one more step closer to evening out their district record. The Lionettes have had several chances to do so throughout the month of January but even though they’ve been able to stay in the contests against opponents in the top half of the district, they’ve yet to pull out a win. Tonight offers the best chance to do that against second place Livingston. The Lionettes are 5-7 in District 8-AA Tonight’s final home game of the regular season will tip off at 6:00 with the girls game. WBRY will have the live broadcast on AM-1540/fM96.7. We will also stream the game live on wbry.com and through the Smartphone and Tablets through WBRY by using the Tunein Radio app
