The Sisseton Redmen will take on the Groton Tigers on Thursday. Both squads will be entering this one on the heels of a big victory.
Sisseton is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Tuesday. They breezed past Britton-Hecla to the tune of 62-35. The win continues a trend for the Redmen in their matchups with the Braves: they've now won nine in a row.
Meanwhile, Groton blew past Redfield, posting a 44-9 victory. Given the Tigers' advantage in MaxPreps' South Dakota basketball rankings (they are ranked 24th, while the Pheasants are ranked 132nd), the result on Tuesday wasn't entirely unexpected.
Groton has been performing well recently as they've won six of their last eight matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 16-6 record this season. Sisseton's win bumped their record up to 14-7.
Sisseton couldn't quite finish off Groton when the teams last played back in December of 2024 and fell 48-45. Can Sisseton avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
