Basketball Game Preview: Independence Knights vs. Sachse Mustangs

The Independence Knights and the Sachse Mustangs will face off at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday without much rest, having both just played. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.

Independence is coming home looking for redemption after taking a loss in their road opener. They lost 59-38 to Bell on Friday. The Knights were down 46-26 at the end of the third quarter, and things only got worse from there.

Meanwhile, while it was all tied up 30-30 at halftime, Sachse was not quite McKinney Boyd's equal in the second half on Friday. They fell 76-66 to the Broncos. The Mustangs have struggled against the Broncos recently, as the game was their fifth consecutive lost matchup.

Independence couldn't quite finish off Sachse in their previous matchup back in December of 2024 and fell 53-50. Will the Knights have more luck at home instead of on the road? Come back here after the game to get an analysis of the match and other basketball content.
