The Washington Demons are back in action tonight, when they are scheduled to host Keokuk again.

This is another makeup game that could become a makeup game again due to the forecast for the rest of the day.

The Washington girls have six games remaining, and five of them are conference games, with two being Keokuk and two being Ft. Madison.

The Demons have not played since last week when they lost to Central Lee and need this win to sit atop the Southeast Conference. The Demons are 10-5 and scoring 52 points per game, but their shooting is the troublesome area, hitting just a third of their shots from the field and 23 percent from behind the arc.

Grace Redlinger leads the way for the team with 14.5 points per game, followed by Dema Giardino with 9.1 and Stephanie Fishback with 8.3.

Keokuk is 12-4 this season, and hitting 39 percent of their shots from the field and 28 percent from downtown, while scoring 54 points per game. Personnel wise, they are almost identical with the Demons, with Lakyn Boltz out top with 14 points per game, Trinity Jeffers with 9.1 points per game, and Paige Kayvan with 8.6. the two players that are different, are MaKenzie Pezley and Kelsey Walters who come in as the five and six shooters; both have over 6.5 points per game.

For the boys, Washington is coming off their big comeback win over Lone Tree to host Keokuk. The Demons are scoring 55 points per game, and hitting 39 percent of their shots from the field. Thomas Bump continues to improve his numbers, scoring 12 points per game, while Gage Redlinger is scoring 10 points per game, and Blake Weidman and Mason Quigley score over eight.

Keokuk is 8-6 on the season, and is scoring 56 point per game, and shooting 43 percent from the field and 41 percent from downtown. The main reason for that is their leading scorer and point guard Jonny Dahl. Dahl is scoring 17 points per game, shooting 49 percent from the field, and 48.5 percent from three-point range. Behind him is Dante Davis with 10.6 points per game, a 37 percent shot from the field, and 40 percent from beyond the arc; and Brandt Ames is third with 9.3 points per game, and a 47 percent shot from the field.
