The Freeport Bulldogs just played yesterday, but they'll still head out to face the Niceville Eagles at 6:30 p.m. on Friday. Both come into the contest bolstered by wins in their previous matches.
While Bulldogs fans will have to keep waiting for their squad to come home, they shouldn't be too worried about the road trip considering the result of Thursday's season opener. They blew past Arnold, posting a 58-31 victory. The Bulldogs not only won on Thursday, but they posted their biggest win since December 27, 2024 (when they won 70-42).
Meanwhile, Niceville hadn't done well against Booker T. Washington recently (they were 2-7 in their previous nine matchups), but they didn't let the past get in their way on Tuesday. In a tight game that could have gone either way, the Eagles made off with a 49-48 win over the Wildcats. The game was the first time the Eagles have beaten the Wildcats on their court since January 25, 2022.
Niceville's win came from a few key players Freeport will need to keep an eye on. One of the most notable was Audrina Nelson, who shot 45% from the field en route to 27 points and six boards. Those six rebounds gave her a new career-high. Another player making a difference was Carson Fayard, who posted 14 points along with five boards and three steals.
