The Inderkum Tigers will hit the road for the first time this season to face off against the Natomas Nighthawks at 7:00 p.m. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, both will really light up the scoreboard.
While Tigers fans will have to keep waiting for their team to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Saturday's season opener. They claimed a resounding 90-56 win over Rocklin.
Inderkum found their leader in sophomore Siincere Hudson, who went 10 for 20 en route to 27 points plus six assists and five steals. What's more, Hudson also racked up two offensive rebounds, the most he's had since back in December of 2023. Taylen Goodman was another key player, going 6 for 9 en route to 16 points plus seven rebounds and three steals.

The contest was Jenkins' third in a row with at least ten points. The team also got some help courtesy of Aeron Wallace, who went 6 for 15 en route to 17 points plus seven rebounds.
Natomas smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 15 offensive rebounds. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least eight offensive rebounds in 22 consecutive matches dating back to last season.
Everything came up roses for Inderkum against Natomas in their previous matchup back in December of 2023, as the squad secured an 88-30 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for Inderkum since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
