In order to keep that chance alive, the Blue Dragons take on the Seward County Saints in a big KJCCC road contest on Saturday afternoon. The No. 11-ranked Blue Dragons (25-3, 19-3 KJCCC) and Saints (19-9, 14-8), tip off at 2 p.m. at the Green House in Liberal.
The game will be broadcast live on Blue Dragon flagship station KHUT-FM (102.9) and on sister stations KWBW-AM/FM (1450/98.5) beginning at 1:45 p.m. with Sean Boston (play-by-play) and Daren Dunn (analyst) calling the action. The game will be streamed on the Blue Dragon Sports Network at 1:45 p.m.
Second place in the Jayhawk, the Blue Dragons trail first-place Dodge City by one game entering play on Saturday. Dodge City plays host to KJCCC third-place and No. 18 Coffeyville on Saturday. Hutchinson closes the regular season with Dodge City on Wednesday at the Sports Arena.
The Blue Dragons have won two games in a row after a decisive victory on Wednesday after defeating Pratt 85-44. Landon Forbes scored a game-high 18 points and tallied a career-high nine steals, which tied for the fourth-most steals in program history.
Seward County still has an outside chance to claim a top-four league finish. The Saints trail fourth-place Butler by two games. The Saints would have to win their two remaining games and Butler would have to lose its two remaining games. Then it would be left up to a tie-breaker because the Saints and Grizzlies split their games this season.
The Saints were defeated by Coffeyville 57-47 on Wednesday. Kylie Hunt led the Saints with 12 points.
The first game with Hutchinson and Seward County was a defensive grind won by the Blue Dragons, 52-40 on January 15 at the Sports Arena. That victory was Blue Dragon head coach John Ontjes' 500th career coaching victory. Hailey Jackson had 21 points and 11 rebounds to pace Hutchinson. The Dragon defense held Seward County 28 points under its season-scoring average.
