The East Bridgewater Vikings will head out to take on the Holliston Panthers at 12:00 p.m. on Monday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
East Bridgewater is headed into the game having just suffered their biggest defeat since January 7th on Friday. They came up short against Sandwich, falling 76-51.
Meanwhile, Holliston lost to Norwood on the road by a 65-51 margin on Thursday. While losing is never fun, the Panthers can't take it too hard given the team's big disadvantage in MaxPreps' Massachusetts basketball rankings (they are ranked 222nd, while the Mustangs are ranked 70th).
Holliston has also traveled a rocky road recently having lost six of their last seven matchups, which has put a noticeable dent in their 6-12 record this season. That patch can't be blamed on the team's offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 51.4 points over those games. As for East Bridgewater, they dropped their record down to 7-6 with the loss, which was their third straight on the road.
East Bridgewater was able to grind out a solid victory over Holliston in their previous meeting back in February of 2024, winning 62-50. The rematch might be a little tougher for East Bridgewater since the team won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
