Basketball Game Preview: Riverton Hawks vs. Rushville-Industry Rockets

The Riverton Hawks will take on the Rushville-Industry Rockets in a tournament on Friday. Rushville-Industry took a loss in their last contest and will be looking to turn the tables on Riverton, who comes in off a win.

Riverton had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. They came out on top against Beardstown by a score of 40-33 on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, Rushville-Industry unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-court advantage in their season opener. They received a blow on Monday as they fell 56-41 to West Central co-op [Winchester-Bluffs]. The Rockets haven't had much luck with the Cougars recently, as the team has come up short the last five times they've met.

Riverton beat Rushville-Industry 64-55 when the teams last played back in November of 2018. Do the Hawks have another victory up their sleeve, or will the Rockets turn the tables on them? We'll have the answer soon enough.
