The Sutton Mustangs and the Mead Raiders will round out the year against one another at 6:00 p.m. on Monday. Keep an eye on the score for this one: the two teams posted some lofty point totals in their previous games.
Mead will be up against a hot Sutton team: the squad just extended their winning streak to three. The stars were shining brightly for the Mustangs in a 55-37 victory over Nebraska Christian on Saturday. The final result isn't all that surprising considering the Mustangs' considerable advantage in MaxPreps' Nebraska basketball rankings (they are ranked 99th, while the Eagles are ranked 208th).
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Sutton to victory, but perhaps none more so than Myles Smith, who posted 12 points. The team also got some help courtesy of Jacob Huxoll, who shot 42% from the field on his way to 12 points.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Mead). They breezed past Brownell Talbot to the tune of 63-36 on Friday.
Sutton's record now sits at 4-2. As for Mead, their record is now 5-0.
Sutton strolled past Mead in their previous matchup back in December of 2024 by a score of 64-47. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Mustangs since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
