The Northside Christian Lions will head out on the road to take on the Marion-Franklin Red Devils at 11:30 a.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 game.
Northside Christian can't be too happy about their upcoming road contest considering what happened when they opened their season away from home on Tuesday. They lost 64-41 to Johnstown-Monroe.
Meanwhile, Marion-Franklin was not able to break out of their rough patch on Wednesday as the team picked up their 13th straight defeat dating back to last season. They took a 75-62 hit to the loss column at the hands of Heath. The Red Devils were down 58-37 at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from.
Northside Christian strolled past Marion-Franklin in their previous matchup back in November of 2024 by a score of 55-41. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Lions since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
