The Pella basketball teams will take another step out of the conference and aim to start winning streaks on the road southeast to Washington tonight.

Coming off of their first league wins against Norwalk Friday, the 2-1 Dutch girls and 1-1 boys are seeking a pair of quality road victories.

In the girls’ opener, the Dutch will seek to continue a long stretch of success against the Demons, which includes a pair of lopsided victories in the past two seasons. Head Coach Blaine Forsythe says this is a much-improved Washington squad that has scored 60 points in both of their competitions thus far.

On the boys side, Pella is going to try and turn the tide against Washington after last year’s matchup turned into an early season upset. The Demons are still led by Ethan Patterson, who dropped 27 on the Dutch last year, but his supporting cast mostly graduated and a lot of new faces are in the mix beyond his talent.

Coverage of Pella vs. Washington basketball begins at 5:15 this evening on 92.1 KRLS.
