The Southwestern Rebels will head out on the road to face off against the Shawe Memorial Hilltoppers at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. The matchup should be an exciting one, as these teams are ranked near one another in Indiana (Southwestern is ranked 279th, while Shawe Memorial is ranked 263rd).
Last Wednesday, Southwestern was the victim of a tough 61-38 loss at the hands of Madison.
Even though the team lost, they still had their share of impressive performances. One of the most dominant came from Ashley Fulton, who dropped a double-double on 15 points and 10 rebounds. The contest was her fourth in a row with at least ten points. Riley Scroggins was another key contributor, dropping a double-double on 10 points and 10 rebounds.
Even though they lost, Southwestern were smashing the offensive glass and finished the game with 21 offensive rebounds. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Madison only pulled down five.
Meanwhile, Shawe Memorial's three-game losing streak came to an end on November 14th. They came out on top against South Central by a score of 63-54. The victory was just what Shawe Memorial needed coming off of a 52-27 loss in their prior matchup.
Their wins bumped Southwestern to 2-4 and Madison to 6-0.
Southwestern couldn't quite finish off Shawe Memorial in their previous meeting back in December of 2022 and fell 63-61. Can Southwestern avenge their loss or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
