Plymouth is 0-3 against Mishawaka Marian since December of 2020 but they'll have a chance to close the gap a little bit on Friday. The Plymouth Pilgrims/Rockies will be playing in front of their home fans against the Mishawaka Marian Knights at 7:30 p.m. One thing working in Plymouth's favor is that they have posted big point totals every time they've taken the court this season.

Meanwhile, Mishawaka Marian's recent rough patch got a bit rougher on Tuesday after their third straight loss. They fell just short of Mishawaka by a score of 40-38.
