The Pearl River Central Blue Devils will face off against the Stone Tomcats at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday. Given that the two teams suffered a loss in their last games, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this game.
Pearl River Central will face Stone after dropping another heartbreaker against West Marion last Tuesday, which marked the second time in a row the team's come within three of beating them. The Blue Devils took a 58-42 bruising from the Trojans. The loss continues a trend for the Blue Devils in their meetings with the Trojans: they've now lost three in a row.
Meanwhile, Stone scored the most points they've had this season on Tuesday, but it wasn't enough. They fell just short of Collins by a score of 64-62. Despite running the score up even higher than they did in their prior game on Saturday (59), the Tomcats still had to take the loss.
Pearl River Central didn't have too much breathing room in their matchup against Stone in their previous meeting back in November of 2024, but they still walked away with a 43-37 win. Will the Blue Devils repeat their success, or do the Tomcats have a new game plan this time around? We'll find out soon enough.
