Hernando has gone 9-1 against Southaven recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Friday. The Hernando Tigers will venture away from home to square off against the Southaven Chargers at 6:00 p.m. One thing working in Hernando's favor is that they have posted at least 55 points in their last five contests.

Last Tuesday, even if it wasn't a dominant performance, Hernando beat Horn Lake 58-53. Given the Tigers' advantage in MaxPreps' Mississippi basketball rankings (they are ranked 33rd, while the Eagles are ranked 151st), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Meanwhile, Southaven had to suffer through a 61-27 loss at the hands of Oxford. The matchup marked Southaven's lowest-scoring game so far this season.

Southaven's defeat dropped their record down to 15-6. As for Hernando, they have been performing incredibly well recently as they've won seven of their last eight contests, which provided a nice bump to their 17-5 record this season.

Hernando didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Southaven in their previous meeting two weeks ago, but they still walked away with a 55-50 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for Hernando since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
