The third road match was the charm for Springfield, as they earned their first road win of the season. They walked away with a 76-69 win over the Russellville Panthers on Friday. That result was just more of the same for these two, as the Yellow Jackets also won the last time the pair played back in November of 2023.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Springfield to victory, but perhaps none more so than E'Shon Thompkins, who scored 18 points. Thompkins' evening made it three games in a row in which he has scored at least ten points. Another player making a difference was Jalen Chapman, who earned 16 points.
Springfield now has a winning record of 3-2.
Both squads are looking forward to the support of their home crowds in their upcoming games. Springfield will host Henry County at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Henry County knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 55 points or more in their past three games -- so hopefully Springfield likes a good challenge. Russellville has already played their next contest (against Springfield), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
