The West Tallahatchie Choctaws will look to take advantage of their home court for the first time this season as they take on the Palmer Dragons at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday.
West Tallahatchie is coming home looking for redemption after taking a loss in their road opener. They received a blow on Tuesday as they fell 51-35 to Coahoma County. Sadly, the loss continues a streak the team started last season, making it four in a row.
For whatever reason, it's the away team that's had the advantage when Palmer and North Panola meet (three straight games heading into this one) and that held true again on Tuesday. The Dragons walked away with a 57-47 victory over the Cougars.
West Tallahatchie skirted past Palmer 66-63 when the teams last played back in December of 2024. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was the Dragons' Jalean Tweedy, who posted 30 points and seven boards. Now that he won't be playing on Saturday, will it be easier for the Choctaws to walk away with another win? There's only one way to find out.
