Cascade Dominates Early Season Rankings While Dallas Struggles to Find Footing

Cascade’s offensive firepower is a standout, with the team averaging an impressive 76.8 points per game. This scoring ability highlights their dominance in controlling games and closing out victories.

In comparison, Dallas averages 58.0 points per game, which demonstrates their potential but also highlights the gap they need to bridge to compete with top-tier teams like Cascade.

Performance Against Common Opponents

Neither Cascade nor Dallas has faced a common opponent yet, leaving no direct comparisons between their performances against shared competition. However, Cascade’s results against their opponents suggest they are on a strong trajectory.

Record Breakdown

• Cascade:
  • Non-League: 5-0

  • Away: 3-0
  • In-State: 5-0
• Dallas:
  • Non-League: 0-3

  • Away: 0-1
  • In-State: 0-3

Upcoming Matches

Cascade’s next match against Newport on February 14, 2025, offers another opportunity for them to extend their winning streak and solidify their top-tier status.

Conclusion

Cascade’s perfect start to the season highlights their readiness to compete at the highest level. Their offensive consistency and balanced play make them a formidable team.

As the season progresses, all eyes will be on whether Cascade can maintain their dominance and if Dallas can rally to make a comeback.
