Having just played yesterday, the Lanett Panthers will jump right back in to play the Hewitt-Trussville Huskies at 5:00 p.m. on Thursday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, both will really light up the scoreboard.
Lanett is probably headed into the matchup with a chip on their shoulder considering Midfield just ended the team's three-game winning streak on Wednesday. They fell to the Patriots 73-67. While losing is never fun, the Panthers can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Alabama basketball rankings (they are ranked 137th, while the Patriots are ranked 44th).
