The Weir Red Riders will challenge the Brooke Bruins at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
It's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 71-42, which was the final score in Weir's tilt against East Liverpool on Tuesday. While losing is never fun, the Red Riders can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' basketball rankings in their respective home states (they are ranked 592nd in West Virginia, while the Potters are ranked 154th in Ohio).
Meanwhile, Brooke came up short against North Marion on Tuesday and fell 57-44. The Bruins have now taken an 'L' in back-to-back games.
Brooke's defeat dropped their record down to 2-9. As for Weir, their loss dropped their record down to 4-10.
Weir didn't have too much breathing room in their match against Brooke in their previous matchup back in February of 2024, but they still walked away with a 62-57 win. Will Weir repeat their success, or does Brooke have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
