The New Castle Trojans will challenge the Greensburg Pirates at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday. Keep an eye on the score for this one: the two teams posted some lofty point totals in their previous games.
New Castle is headed into the contest after thoroughly thrashing Oldenburg Academy: they outscored them in every quarter. Given that consistent dominance, it should come as no surprise that the Trojans blew the Twisters out of the water with a 66-37 final score. The Trojans pushed the score to 43-23 by the end of the third, a deficit the Twisters had little chance of recovering from.
Meanwhile, Greensburg had to travel to play their first game of the season, but the final result was worth the trip. They took down North Decatur 64-45 on Tuesday.
Greensburg's win came from a few key players New Castle will need to keep an eye on. One of the most notable was Andrew Bowman, who shot 57% from the field on his way to 19 points and seven rebounds. What's more, he also posted a 29% three-point shooting accuracy, which is the highest he's achieved since back in November of 2024. Another player making a difference was Logan Simpson, who posted 13 points and three steals.
