The Morehead Panthers will venture away from home to square off against the Cummings Cavaliers at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Morehead is probably headed into the matchup with a chip on their shoulder considering Rockingham County just ended the team's four-game winning streak on Friday. The contest between the Panthers and the Cougars didn't end well, with the Panthers falling 58-39. While losing is never fun, the Panthers can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' North Carolina basketball rankings (they are ranked 330th, while the Cougars are ranked 124th).
