The Burton Panthers will venture away from home to square off against the Bremond Tigers at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Burton is coming into the matchup on a three-game losing streak.
On Tuesday, Burton opened the new year with a less-than-successful 67-56 loss to Iola.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Bremond). They simply couldn't be stopped on Tuesday as they easily beat Somerville 61-30. The victory continues a trend for the Tigers in their matchups with the Yeguas: they've now won three in a row.
Burton better keep an eye on Jeramiah Morgan. He was instrumental in Bremond's win, dropping a double-double with 26 points and 11 rebounds. Morgan also grabbed five steals, which is notable because the Tigers are 4-1 when he posts at least five steals, but 1-8 otherwise. Another player making a difference was Jaden Scott, who posted six points in addition to seven boards and five steals.
Bremond smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 18 offensive boards. That's the most offensive rebounds they've posted since back in January of 2025.
Bremond's win bumped their record up to 5-9. As for Burton, their defeat dropped their record down to 8-6.
Burton might still be hurting after the 61-37 loss they got from Bremond in their previous meeting back in January of 2025. Thankfully for the Panthers, Jeremy Harris (who dropped a double-double with 19 points and ten 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.
