Basketball Recap: Pontotoc Falls to West Union in First Game of Season

Pontotoc unfortunately couldn't capitalize on their home-court advantage in their season opener. They took a 36-30 hit to the loss column at the hands of the West Union Eagles on Saturday. The Warriors were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Eagles apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in December of 2024.

Coincidentally, Pontotoc and West Union will both be playing Tupelo the next time they take the court. The Warriors will host the Golden Wave at 3:45 p.m. on Saturday, while the Eagles will play them later in the day, at 4:30 p.m.
