LOGAN, W.Va. — After a 4-4 start to the season, Logan has won six of its last seven games heading into a difficult final stretch to the regular season.

The Wildcats last week beat Wyoming East 72-61 in the King Coal Classic, avenging a loss to the Warriors earlier in the season.

Sophomore standout David Early scored 36 points in the win for Logan (10-5) and is averaging over 20 points per game overall this season.

The Wildcats followed up that victory with a 75-52 win over Grafton where Early again scored 36 points.

Logan on Saturday faces a difficult challenge against Nitro (13-2), followed next week with matchups against Class AAA Beckley and AA title contender Chapmanville Regional.

Regular season games against Westside (11-3) and Capital (7-4) are also included in the final stretch for the Wildcats.
