Basketball Game Preview: Stearns Minutemen vs. Greenville Lakers

The Stearns Minutemen will be defending their home court for the first time this season when they go up against the Greenville Lakers at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. Given that both suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.

Last Monday, Stearns came up short against Lee Academy and fell 77-67.

Meanwhile, Greenville unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-court advantage in their season opener. They took a 68-49 bruising from Bangor Christian on Monday. The Lakers just can't catch a break and have now endured five losses in a row dating back to last season.

Everything came up roses for Stearns against Greenville when the teams last played back in January, as the team secured a 62-31 win. Will Stearns repeat their success, or does Greenville have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
