Peyton is a perfect 4-0 against Fowler since February of 2021 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Friday. The Peyton Panthers just played last yesterday, but they'll still welcome the Fowler Grizzlies at 4:00 p.m. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.

Fowler will be up against a hot Peyton squad: the team just extended their winning streak to four. Peyton enjoyed a cozy 70-52 win over Evangel Christian Academy on Thursday.

Swallows Charter Academy typically has all the answers at home, but on Tuesday Fowler proved too difficult a challenge. They strolled past the Spartans with points to spare, taking the game 55-41.

Fowler's win came from a few key players Peyton will need to keep an eye on. One of the most notable was Isaiah Montoya, who posted 18 points. Joe Salvo was another key player, going 7-for-13 en route to 17 points.

Fowler smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with ten offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least eight offensive boards in four consecutive contests.

Peyton's victory was their sixth straight on the road, which pushed their record up to 11-7. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 64.3 points over those games. As for Fowler, they have been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 13-6 record this season.

Peyton didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Fowler in their previous matchup back in January of 2024, but they still walked away with a 54-50 win. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Fowler's Gage Gottbehuet, who dropped a double-double with 29 points and 12 boards. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for Peyton to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
