The Bruton Panthers will challenge the Warhill Lions at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Keep an eye on the score for this one: both posted some lofty point totals in their previous games.

While Panthers fans will have to keep waiting for their team to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Wednesday's season opener. They blew past Tabb, posting a 74-43 win.

Brandon Freeman and Isaiah Randall were among the main playmakers for Bruton as the former almost dropped a double-double on nine points and 11 assists and the latter went 6 for 8 en route to 15 points plus two steals. That's the most assists Freeman has posted since back in December of 2023. Johnathan Hopkins was another key player, going 5 for 8 en route to 13 points plus seven rebounds.

Meanwhile, Warhill took care of business in their home opener on Monday. They snuck past Arcadia with a 71-65 victory.

Bruton didn't have too much breathing room in their match against Warhill when the teams last played back in February, but they still walked away with a 58-54 win. Will Bruton repeat their success, or does Warhill have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
