Eaton has traveled a rocky road recently having lost five of their last six matches, which put a noticeable dent in their 5-10 record this season.

As for Edgewood, they moved to 7-8 with that defeat, which also ended their three-game winning streak.
Eaton didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Edgewood in their previous meeting back in January of 2024, but they still walked away with a 58-52 victory.
