While Spartans fans will have to keep waiting for their squad to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Wednesday's season opener. They simply couldn't be stopped on Wednesday as they easily beat Findlay 63-29. The victory was a breath of fresh air for the Spartans as it put an end to their seven-game losing streak dating back to last season.

Start was able to grind out a solid win over Scott in their previous meeting back in December of 2023, winning 45-37. The rematch might be a little tougher for Start since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
