The Mars Hill Bible Panthers will challenge the Tanner Rattlers at 4:45 p.m. on Tuesday. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W'.
Mars Hill Bible can't be too happy about their upcoming road game considering what happened when they opened their season away from home on Thursday. They were outmatched by Wayne County and fell 67-40. For those keeping track at home, that's the biggest defeat the Panthers have suffered since December 28, 2024.
Meanwhile, Tanner didn't have quite enough to beat Westminster Christian Academy on Monday and fell 51-48.
Mars Hill Bible will have to keep a close watch on Rick Seights Jr and Kaden Freeman, a pair of players who had a big impact on Tanner's prior game. Seights Jr went 6-for-14 en route to 19 points and six rebounds, while Freeman shot 45% from the field to rack up 14 points. Seights Jr's afternoon made it three games in a row in which he has scored at least 17 points. Jay Thatch also deserves some recognition as he posted his first block of the season.
Mars Hill Bible beat Tanner 76-67 in their previous matchup back in November of 2024. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Panthers since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
