The Omaha South Packers will be taking part in a tournament against the Fremont Tigers at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this contest.
After dropping their season opener at home, Fremont is headed out to face a Packers team ready to give their home crowd a win. Omaha South was dealt a 74-33 defeat at the hands of Benson on Thursday. The Packers have struggled against the Bunnies recently, as the game was their fourth consecutive lost matchup.
The losing side was boosted by AJ Southward, who posted 11 points and three steals.
Meanwhile, Fremont had to start their season on the road on Thursday, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. They fell 48-40 to Omaha Northwest. The game was a 16-16 toss-up at halftime, but the Tigers couldn't quite close it out.
Omaha South came up short against Fremont when the teams last played back in December of 2024, falling 56-51. Thankfully for the Packers, Maurice Bryant (who went 6-for-15 to rack up 21 points and six rebounds) won't be suiting up this time. Will that be enough to change the final result? There's only one way to find out.
