McLean is a perfect 4-0 against Mount Vernon since January of 2018 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Friday. The Highlanders will look to take advantage of their home court for the first time this season as they take on the Majors at 7:30 p.m. Mount Vernon took a loss in their last matchup and will be looking to turn the tables on McLean, who comes in off a win.

McLean is coming home in high spirits after they had to open their season on the road against James Madison. The Highlanders walked away with a 52-41 victory over the Warhawks on Tuesday. The score was all tied up 25-25 at the break, but the Highlanders were the better team in the second half.

Jake Bell was a one-man wrecking crew as he shot 67% from the field en route to 21 points and seven rebounds. The team also got some help courtesy of Nick Karageorgos, who posted 13 points.

Meanwhile, Mount Vernon was within striking distance but couldn't close the gap on Tuesday as they fell 64-59 to Meridian.

McLean was able to grind out a solid win over Mount Vernon in their previous matchup back in December of 2024, winning 51-38. Do the Highlanders have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Majors turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
