St. Joseph-Ogden has gone a perfect 4-0 against Watseka recently and they'll look to pad the win column further on Thursday. The Spartans will take on the Warriors in a tournament on Thursday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, these teams will really light up the scoreboard.

St. Joseph-Ogden had to kick off their season on the road on Tuesday, but they showed no ill effects. They blew past Arthur-Lovington/Atwood-Hammond 66-30. The win continues a trend for the Spartans in their matchups with the Knights: they've now won four in a row.

Meanwhile, Watseka posted their closest victory since January 14th on Wednesday. They slipped by Oakwood 55-54.

Everything came up roses for St. Joseph-Ogden against Watseka in their previous meeting back in December of 2024, as the squad secured a 60-27 win. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Spartans since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
