Both teams boast undefeated records and have shown exceptional dominance on the court. Here’s a detailed breakdown of their season so far, their performance averages, and the upcoming showdown.

Moravian Prep: A Force to Be Reckoned With

Moravian Prep has started the 2024-2025 season with an impeccable 6-0 record. The team is performing at an elite level, dominating in both scoring and defense. Averaging an astounding 95.7 points per game, they have a scoring system that’s clicking on all cylinders. Their offense is especially strong in the first half, where they average 24.0 points in the first quarter and 27.0 in the second quarter. As the game progresses, Moravian Prep maintains pressure, scoring an average of 23.0 points in the third and 22.0 in the fourth.

At home, Moravian Prep is perfect with a 3-0 record. They have also been impressive on neutral courts with a 2-0 mark. Their only common opponent so far this season has been Hamilton Heights Christian Academy, whom they defeated 96-62 on November 29, 2024.

Moravian Prep’s high-powered offense has been a standout feature this season, as evidenced by their 574 total points scored against their opponents, yielding only 351 points. They will be a tough challenge for any team in their path as they continue to build their unbeaten streak.

Webb School: A Tennessee Juggernaut

Webb School, based in Tennessee, is another powerhouse to watch. They have also posted a perfect 9-0 record this season. Much like Moravian Prep, Webb is scoring at a high rate, averaging 72.9 points per game. While their scoring averages aren’t as high as Moravian Prep’s, they have been incredibly consistent across their games, showing a well-balanced offense that has propelled them through their nine games.

Webb has demonstrated versatility, especially with their 5-0 record in neutral-site games, where many high-stakes contests tend to be held. The team has been strong in both home and away games, boasting an undefeated 3-0 mark at home and a 1-0 record on the road.

Webb’s defensive play has also been solid, with the team allowing 397 points across nine games, but their ability to outscore their opponents has been key to their success. Their next major test will be against Hamilton Heights Christian Academy on February 13, 2025, where both teams will meet again after Moravian Prep’s earlier victory.

A Comparative Look: Strengths and Key Differences

Both teams have exhibited outstanding performances, but there are some key differences in their play styles and records. Moravian Prep is averaging nearly 96 points per game, while Webb’s average is 72.9, reflecting a slightly more balanced but less explosive offensive game. However, Webb’s perfect 9-0 record across all competitions is a testament to their consistency and adaptability across various settings.

• Record and Opponents: Moravian Prep holds a 6-0 record with a notable 1-0 mark against common opponent Hamilton Heights Christian Academy, whereas Webb is 9-0, having yet to face a team with the same intensity as Moravian Prep.
