Since losing to Los Lunas, the Lady Rams have gone on a hot streak to position themselves in first place. Standing atop District 1-6A at 3-0, Rio Rancho got one of those wins on the road at the last year's state champion's Volcano Vista gym and defended home court against last year's state runner-up, Cibola. In all three district wins the Lady Rams held their opponents under their season scoring average. Tonight they'll take on Cleveland who they defeated one week ago today.
