Stringer and Sylva Bay Academy are an even 5-5 against one another since January of 2017, but not for long. The Red Devils will square off against the Saints at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday. Both come into the matchup bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
While Red Devils fans will have to keep waiting for their squad to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Tuesday's season opener. They sure made it a nail-biter, but they managed to escape with a 39-36 win over Clarkdale on Tuesday. The game was the first time the Red Devils have beaten the Bulldogs on their court since November 15, 2022.
Meanwhile, Sylva Bay Academy strolled into their game on Tuesday with a perfect record and they left with the same. They blew past Newton County Academy 41-14. Fans of the Saints have seen this all before: every one of the games they've played this season has ended in a blowout of 20+ points.
Stringer better keep an eye on Tristen Rogers. He was instrumental in Sylva Bay Academy's win, shooting 50% from the field to rack up 15 points and five steals. Rogers is on a roll when it comes to steals, as he's now grabbed two or more in each of the last eight games he's played dating back to last season. Another player making a difference was Brecken Phillips, who posted six points and five boards.
Stringer came up short against Sylva Bay Academy when the teams last played back in December of 2024, falling 30-21. Can the Red Devils avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
